Access 97 Lotus Notes 5 & 6

[Guest]

We have a situation coming up where we have access 97 applications using
Lotus notes 5, we are starting to roll out the Lotus Notes 6 client and are
having an issue when the lotus notes 6 user opens the DB they have to go into
modules and click on references and uncheck and recheck the lotus notes
object, and than all functions work. Than when the lotus notes 5 user goes
back into the DB they have the same issue with not being able to run some
queries, so they have to go into modules/reference and it shows the lotus
notes oject checked but it says missing next to it, so they uncheck it and
recheck it and go back in and they run the DB and it works fine, but than it
breaks it for the lotus 6 user. so it appears to be an issue with the
domobj.tlb file, but not sure how to fix the problem? Obviously upgrading
everyone to 6 would be the fix, but that isnt going to happen????

You have two options
1) Distribute the Front End to all Users (with code to fix broken reference
links at startup)
2) Use late binding when referencing the Lotus Notes Object model
