Notes 8 password prompt with VB

HCL Domino Domino Forum

I’m trying to be able to send a notes email without having the notes client application open on the pc but whatever I try, I still get the prompt for the notes password.

I’ve tried:

Dim Session as Object

Set Session = CreateObject(“Lotus.NotesSession”)

Call Session.Initialize(“password”)

I can get the code to send emails fine if the Notes Client is already running and logged in, otherwise it just prompts for the password even though I’m passing the password in the code. Is there any way to send Notes email without getting prompted for the password? Thanks

multiple notes.ini?

Try looking under File-Security-User Security. Try checking the "Don’t prompt for a password from other Notes based programs.

I’m not sure if that will work, but it might.

Thanks for the suggestion, although I already have this option selected. I’ve also unchecked it, exited, and went back in and checked it again… still prompts for the password.

I’m having the same issue…

Were you ever able to resolve it?

g_oLNsession = CREATEOBJECTEX(“Lotus.NotesSession”,“”,“”)

g_oLNsession.Initialize(“MyPassword”)

Whether I pass a string or not, the password prompt always comes up unless the Lotus Notes Client is up and running.

I don’t have multiple NOTES.INI files, and the current directory is where my NOTES.INI lives.

We don’t have the option of not having a password on our Lotus Notes Accounts.
