Notes Client

iStock_000008517528XSmallComputer Architechs specializes in providing customized software solutions for Lotus Notes from version 4 to version 8.5. Since our inception we have had a very strong focus on Notes and we continue to maintain our lead in developing tailor-made Notes applications for our clients. To date we have done this for companies in the medical, banking, accounting, travel, show management, and legal sectors. However, we are not limited to these particular industries. Just as Notes is a useful tool for virtually any type of business, we can develop a customized Notes product to fit almost any company’s needs.

Computer Architechs has provided Notes-specific solutions merging LotusScript, Javascript, Formula Language, AJAX, XML, JSON, and Java. We also have years of experience integrating Notes with other products. For example, using C, C#, C++, Visual Basic, OLE, and COM, we have built systems for customers that incorporate Notes as an important component of the entire package, but that run completely outside of Notes.

For one customer we created a Visual Basic-based system that automatically opens up a Notes mail database using COM and OLE. It then follows all the links to the views and folders and extracts metadata from every document and saves it to a Microsoft Access database. OLE was used to take snapshots of each document as it was opened. The captured images were saved to the Access database as well. We even supported Rich Text fields by incorporating database, view and document links as well as attachments and other Rich Text elements. The product is used commercially today to provide law firms with a way to extract metadata from mail files for auditing purposes in Notes clients.
