Lotus Notes：NotesSQL限制

Question

Does anybody know the restrictions of the NotesSQL API (Domino ODBC API)? Eg can I read mail attachments with this API? Or should the domino.dll the prefered way to access NSF files (in the .NET World )?

Answer 1

The NotesSQL API uses views to create its pseudo-tables. As an attachment is stored as an RTF field and RTF-fields can't be displayed in views, I think this is not possible.

I'm not completely up-to-date, my last experience with NotesSQL was with 6.5. But back then it was not very stable when querying large datasets so we dropped it quite fast for production use.
