    OLE Notes rules:

    •The OLEPath Dex.ini setting points to a shared folder for ALL workstations, you can use a shared drive letter (eg: G:\Dynamics\Notes\) or a UNC pathname (eg: \\Server\Dynamics\Notes\).

    •The OLEPath Dex.ini settings ends with a backslash.

    •The OLEPath Dex.ini setting points to a folder which exists and has read/write/create access to it and all sub folders.

    •The folder pointed to by the OLEPath Dex.ini setting contains a folder for each company using the Intercompany ID (SQL Database name) as the folder name.

    •Each company folder contains a folder called OLENotes.
