Well, I tried everything above and FINALLY figure out a solution that worked for me. I deleted my notes.ini file which then triggered to lotus notes to start the configuration wizard. And suddenly, everything was fine again. I also went back to the old outlook connector but I don't think that had anything to do with it. I also disable Plaxo to limit the possible problems.

My Questions: 1. do you know how to fix it? to be able to assign tasks across the 2 setups? 2. does it work fine by you the using MS connector instead? Your answers are appreciated. Thanks Chaim Assigning tasks to (straight) outlook users?

some people in our office are using outlook through the IBM’s connector (DAMO) to Lotus, and some are using simple outlook (w/ some POP accounts).

so if one DAMO – Outlook user assigns an outlook task to another user w/ the same setup, it works just fine, the task gets created perfect.

but I’m using the simple outlook 2003, and I tried to assign an outlook task to a DAMO – Outlook user, but i did not succeed instead they got a simple email, i tried doing vice versa and got similar results.

My Questions:
1. do you know how to fix it? to be able to assign tasks across the 2 setups?
2. does it work fine by you the using MS connector instead?

Your answers are appreciated.

Thanks Chaim

Will this connector allow me to simply open the underlying file? Or does anyone know how I can access the lotus file, using any other software. I don't need for the files to be integrated into anything, just want to be able to read them, and extract any attachments etc. Thanks Kath Hi,
