Lotus Domino Designer 8.5 Help - Using the Domino classes

LOTUSSCRIPT/COM/OLE CLASSES

Using the Domino classes
Domino Designer defines LotusScript classes that allow you to access Domino structures on two levels:

The database (back-end) classes allow you to access named databases, views, documents, and other Domino objects. Both workstation and server users can run scripts that access database objects.
The UI (front-end) classes allow you to access current objects that the user is working on. Only workstation users can run scripts that access UI objects.

The following table outlines the LotusScript classes defined by Domino Designer:
