Summary: Not good for Lotus Notes
Review: I am a 1-2-3 user and this book used 12 full pages of 322 on the subject. The rest of this book ties primarily into Word Pro with examples that don't relate to getting the results into the document. Almost all of the examples stay inside the Script Editor, which doesn't help me at all. If you're a programmer, I doubt that this book will enlighten you, if you're not, you still won't be one. The "for Dummies" humor is OK at first, but after the cute examples with cute results, the jokes just grate on you.

Summary: Totally useless!
Review: I don't use Notes, just Approach... All I learned from this book is how to Click a button to show a Message Box. The author thinks he is very clever because he replaced the usual "Hello World" by "Goodbye Cruel World". If that is all you need Lotusscript for, then buy this book! Unfortunately, I could not find any other book on the subject here... If someone knows one, please email me...

Summary: Not good for Lotus Notes
Review: I thought this book was good in teaching the basics of Lotus Script, as well as the basic concepts of any language. However, if you want to script in Lotus Notes, then forget about it. Not knowing ANYTHING about LotusScript, I got a good foundation of how to do things and what things are, but as far as using the editor, how to add your own subs and functions, etc., it was no help as Lotus Notes is different than WordPro! This did not help you to differentiate between Notes Classes at all, although it did teach you about classes in general. Bottom line: good for a basic background, but won't get you very far with Lotus Notes.

Summary: Too Thin, Not Applicable
Review: I was looking for a book for a Notes developer who did not have Visual Basic background and wanted to learn LotusScript from scratch. Unfortunately, the examples and interfaces are well written if you want to use LotusScript for Lotus WordPro or their Suite, but did not match how Lscript is used in Notes, thus I stopped after the first 2 chapters. It may be usefull to someone if you already know scripting and want to work with the Lotus Smartsuite Lscript, but use it only as a backup if you want Notes ideas and skills for Lscript.

Summary: Did the cover say LotusScript?
Review: OK so maybe the cover did say LotusScript, but if you are a Notes Developer, FORGET THIS BOOK! The book has absolutly nothing that deals with Notes/Domino at all. Maybe if there are people out there that want to learn LotusScript for other products besides Notes, this MIGHT be ok. There is little more to say for Notes consultants besides look elsewhere!
