Ron,
This is roughly what I was thinking about although I am admittedly fuzzy
on the client to server redirection thing. I need the PN Agent for this
to work, yes?
The Notes guys in house tell me there is a .nlb file type for this
database I may be able to set an association with. The trick is to just
do it for *this* Notes database (we have many). Do you know of a way to
set an association within a link/shortcut? Something like the "open with"
option in Windows, only from a command line.

What about changing the file association (for whatever this link is) to
launch an ICA session. Like Client to server redirection. Might need the
PNA to do it, but it should work.

Subject: [THIN] Launching Citrix from Lotus Notes Client
Here's a squirrelly one.
I have been asked to find a way to launch a Citrix session from a link=20
within a Lotus Notes R5 client.=20
We have an app for reconciling credit card expenses that runs on a Notes
database. You receive an email when your expenses post with a link to=20
this database. Click on the link and the app launches. The problem is=20
this app performs terribly slow over the WAN. It runs acceptably well=20
though a Citrix session of Notes.=20
The easy solution would be to have everyone run Notes via Citrix.
However,=20
only have of our sites use Citrix for all apps. For the other half, I=20
have been asked to find a way to allow users to still use their local=20
Notes client for mail, calendar, etc. but find a way to launch this=20
expense app through a Citrix session, and via that link in the=20
notification email.
So.... I am asking for help with a creative solution.
Might this be done with an embedded ICA file? I am wondering also if=20
content redirection could help me with this also? Any other
suggestions?
Windows 2000, MetaframeXP and
Thanks,
