2010 Notes Migration to SharePoint V2.wmv

Shows how to migrate a basic Lotus Notes database application to SharePoint 2010 using the Domino web interface (ReadViewEntries) and Access 2010. In SharePoint 2010, a default InfoPath form is automatically created for Create, Read, Update, Delete (CRUD) operations on your new list documents. This is good enough for many Notes database migration. what is lost is existing access control setting, rich text, audit trails, data validation, processing logic and some UI features.

I want to remind folks that this method works for simple Notes databases. If your Notes datadase has elements like rich text, attachments, reponses hierarchies and so on, they will be lost with this method. For those databases you will need a tool like the ones from Casahl, Quest Software, Binary Tree or others.

I have a some question. If i have changed a XML file - can i see those changes in sharepoint?

[Garydevendorf]

@headbat1 - Once the XML file is imported into SharePoint it now it stored in SQL Server tables. So if you change the XML file before the import then yes. A good place to change the data is in Access before the migration. We are taking a snap shot of the data. You can delete the data and "append" the data to an existing list if you want fresh data.

@headbat1 Yep. if the change is before the import
