Hi
I’d like to extend my application to ba able connecting to external not notes database using *lsxlc on the form.
But this requires installing decs on notes clients for people, which want to use extended functionality.
What can I do to allow few persons (with decs installed) to “use *lsxlc” feature on the form.
Is there any ‘conditional use’ feature?
I don’t like installing notes+decs on all our workstations 
Regards,
Jacek

Pretty sure that as long as the application is being accessed on the server then you don’t need DECS on the clients. Are users replicating locally to use the application.

Pretty sure that as long as the application is being accessed on the server then you don’t need DECS on the clients.Correct, but on workstations with LotusNotes without DECS option there is warning: “Error loading use or uselsx module…”.
After re-installing LN with DECS option the warning doesn’t pop-up.
Are users replicating locally to use the application.
Nope, we all work on server.

You have to install DECS locally for the user to have a copy of the LC LSX to be able to use. Also, the users must have a copy of the relational database client software that you’re using, configured to allow access to the database in question. Also, you must somehow get the user authenticated to the relational database – e.g. by storing their password locally.
For alternativce approaches, ses this article.

in the postopen try something likeif session.GetEnvironmentString(“UserHasDecs”)<>“” then execute(|use “lsxlc”|)
