From: Patriot on 21 Apr 2010 21:19 Hello, I am assigned to replace an old Web application (written by some contractors) with new asp.net application. The current application has an integration to Lotus Notes to send email and record in-coming email to the its database. To do this, they have some ActiveX to open Lotus Notes windows to handle out going messages and in Lotus Notes they also use Lotus Script (similar to VB) to handle incoming messages. To send messages from the application, the application will activate Lotus Notes windows and populate the mail form with data from the application (Recipients, Subjects, Body text, attachment....). Then the users will either fill out some more text in the body and/or other fields and click Send to send the message. With incoming messages, they have to write some Lotus Script (or VB codes) to use the ActivateX COM object and pass data (Sender, Body text...) to the COM object, pass control to the web application, show the data in the web form and the user will save the record or fill out some more data before saving. What is it available for me to tackle this problem as I don't see Microsoft Visual Studio have ActiveX template? Thank you.

Create a reference to the ActivateX COM object (?) and it will create a .NET Interop wrapper for you (you can also do this manually with TmlImp.exe, but why use outside tools when Visual Studio will do it for you). The pain here is there is often some "translation" from COM to .NET types. A quick Google search should find some info on using COM in .NET. Sorry to hear you had some contractors. ;-) -- Peace and Grace, Greg Twitter: @gbworld Blog: http://gregorybeamer.spaces.live.com ************************************************ | Think outside the box! | ************************************************
From: Patriot on 22 Apr 2010 12:44 Thank you Mr. Arnold for the links. They look informative (with sample...yeah...). I will explore this option. Thanks Greg. I am quite sure what you mean here as I'm not fully using .Net to develop. I'm mostly handling the legacy systems in Foxpro (sigh*). My knowledge in .Net is really far behind the trend. If you could explain in more details, I really appreciate it.
