I need to Provide a link to a WINDOWS FOLDER on the server from a Notes Only Application.
ie when a user clicks on the link, it should open a windows folder
Thanks in advance.

I don’t think there’s any straight forward way of doing this. You would probably need to do it in a hotspot/button using Lotus Script and the shell command. I do something similar where I want to open the admin share of a windows PC (not that I cheated by using a copy of Explorer.exe):
Dim session As New NotesSession
Dim uiDoc As NotesUIDocument
Dim uiWorkspace As New NotesUIWorkspace
Set uiDoc=uiWorkspace.CurrentDocument
PCNo=uiDoc.FieldGetText(“Asset”)
Run=Shell("\\fileserver\tools\explorer.exe " + "\\" + PCNo + "\c$", 1)

If I understood you correctly:
file://drive:\path\
file://\srv\share\path\
works just like http:// but will point to a folder (or application)
