I am trying to connect to Lotus notes through C#. For this i am using below code

NotesSession ns = new Domino.NotesSession(); ns.Initialize();

i am getting "The system cannot find the file specified." error while initializing session, if i have not opened lotus notes client on my machine.

How ever if Lotus notes client is open, i am not getting this error.

I think you can pass a pathname to the notes.ini file. Try that. Make sure that a valid ID file name is specified in the notes.ini variable KeyFileName . E. g. KeyFileName=yournotesid.id The ID file is supposed to be in the notes data directory. The path to the id file specified in the notes.ini is relative to the data directory.
