Subject: Please help–Domino database questions
Users are listed in Domino Directory - Rooms are NOT listed there, but as documents in Resource Reservations database.
I don’t understand the question.
Each meeting is stored as response document to a main document containing static information about the meeting.

Users are listed in Domino Directory - Rooms are NOT listed there, but as documents in Resource Reservations database.They are indeed listed in the Domino Directory, under the Mail-In Databases and Resources view. When new rooms or resources are added to the resource databases, adminp puts them in the directory so they can be seen in the address dialogs.
I don’t understand the question.
The rooms and resources and their reservations are stored in the resource.nsf (default name) database. The free-time schedule for rooms and resources is stored in busytime.nsf (or clubusy.nsf if clustered).

There is no generic “database structure” that can give you the answers you are looking for. Domino is not table-based, it is document-based. Each document contains what it needs to contain, no more, no less. Anything you know of relational databases should be best forgotten when you get to Notes.
That being said, you can examine the documents in any given database to figure out what is stored (use the Document Properties dialog, second tab, to examine the documents). You can also examine the design in Domino Designer. The closest thing to a “table definition” that Notes has is the Form, so that’s a good place to start. Please note, though, that while the form will tell you quite a bit about the associated documents, it is not the whole answer. Items (the stored analog to the fields on a form) may be added, removed or altered programmatically.
