Is there a way to launch a Notes database from within a word doc. I can go from Notes to word…but not sure about going the other way.

Thanks!!

Does this help? You can use the Notes URL commands to insert a hyperlink in a Word document. Here is an example.

notes://servername/dbname.nsf?OpenDatabase

There is some information in Help about the notes:// URL commands, and some in this Forum and the 4/5 Forum as well.

Here’s your solution:Select the document you want to link to in Lotus.

Go to Edit, Copy as Link… Document Link

Open the Word Document.

Click on Edit, Past Special…

Select Paste Link – As, Picture – Check Display as Icon.

This will place an Icon in your Word document. Click on the Icon and it will launch Lotus and open the document you had select. … Good luck!

Thank you, Stan.

Yes, the Notes URL opens the Notes Client. It just looks like an HTTP hyperlink.
