Many of you have been discovering the power of using LotusScript to build applications and are also becoming familiar with R4’s OLE support, which allows you to embed objects such as spreadsheets in your applications. Now you can take your applications to the next level by learning to combine LotusScript and OLE functionality. This is the first of a two-part series that explains how to use LotusScript, the Notes classes for LotusScript that come with Notes R4, and OLE to create compound documents and applications that use embedded, functional components.
