You can obtain this driver from the Lotus Web site. Read the documentation that comes with it for an explanation of how Notes data maps to relational tables. You can easily map IQ tables to Notes forms.
To set up Sybase IQ to access the Address sample file, follow this procedure.
Setting up IQ to access the Address sample file
Create an ODBC data source using the NotesSQL driver.
The database will be the sample names file c:\notes\data\names.nsf. The Map Special Characters option should be turned on. For this example, the Data Source Name is my_notes_dsn.
Create an IQ server:
CREATE SERVER names CLASS 'odbc' USING 'my_notes_dsn'
Map the Person form into an IQ table:
CREATE EXISTING TABLE Person AT 'names...Person'
Query the table
SELECT * FROM Person
Lotus Notes does not support sending a user name and password through the ODBC API. If you try to access Lotus notes using a password protected ID, a window appears on the machine where Sybase IQ is running, and prompts you for a password. Avoid this behavior in multi-user server environments.
To access Lotus Notes unattended, without ever receiving a password prompt, you must use a non-password-protected ID. You can remove password protection from your ID by clearing it (File > Tools > User ID > Clear Password), unless your Domino administrator required a password when your ID was created. In this case, you will not be able to clear it.
