Hi.Does anyone know the way to use Lotus Notes C API without putting notes directory in system environment?

I developed an application with using Notes C API on Visual Studio 2005.

As I know, Notes C API requires to put the notes directory into the Windows system environment. However my client asked me whether or not we can avoid putting any information into Windows system environment.

Any information is very appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

I have developed c++ programs( similiar to the sample programs given in the toolkit) in VS 2005 & Lotus 8.0. I have converted my program into exe file. I have ran that successfully without opening notes & placing my database on desktop. For Eg- try the dbtitle program in toolkit-sample folder by converting it into a exe file. Then close notes & try running that exe from command prompt. You have to provide the full path of database whose title you want to get.I was able to do it successfully.
