      - Sybase terminology
      - Supported characteristics of the Connector for Sybase
        The following list captures supported characteristics of the Connector for Sybase.
      - Sybase Connection Document for HEI
        The Sybase connection document defines a connection to a Sybase database. Connection documents enable you to define your system connections. They contain access information for specific databases and users. When you create an activity, you make connection choices from your set of defined connections.
      - Fields in the HEI Connection Document - 1
        See the following tables for descriptions of the connection document fields.
      - Sybase Connection Document for DECS
        The connection document for Sybase defines a connection to a Sybase database. Connection documents enable you to define your system connections. They contain access information for specific databases and users. When you create an activity, you make connection choices from your set of defined connections.
      - Fields in the DECS Connection Document - Connectivity and Table Selections options
        The Domino® Enterprise Connection Services (DECS) connection document provides values for Connectivity and Table Selections options. The fields in the DECS connection document are described as follows.
      - Considerations When Working with the Connector for Sybase
        This section describes several important considerations for using the Connector for Sybase.
      - Calling Sybase Stored Procedures
        Wherever procedures are allowed in HCL Enterprise Integrator (HEI), a Sybase stored procedure may be used such as the destination of a Direct Transfer or within an LSX script. The stored procedure being called must have its parameters set up correctly for the call.
      - Sybase Data Types
        The following tables show the correspondences of Sybase to HCL Enterprise Integrator (HEI) or Domino® Enterprise Connection Services (DECS) data types for various types of activities.
      - Lotus® Connector for Sybase Properties
        See the Connector LotusScript® Extensions Guide for a list of properties for the Connector for Sybase.
    - Chapter 11 Connector for Text
      This chapter provides information about the Connector for Text, including descriptions of the fields in the connection document.
    - Chapter 12 Metaconnectors for HEI
      This chapter provides an introduction to HEI Metaconnectors and contains information for creating and using the different types of Metaconnectors.
  - LSX for Connectors
    LotusScript® Extensions for Connectors (LC LSX) enhances the power of Notes® by extending its scripting to data outside of Notes through the use of Connectors. The programming model is independent of the individual connector. This eliminates the need to learn each individual system, while at the same time allowing experienced users to access the individual features of a specific system.
  - Accessing external databases through LS:DO
    Developers are advised not to use LS:DO. Developers should use the Connector LSX for (LCLSX) when accessing external data sources.
- Javadoc™ for Domino® Designer related APIs
  As part of providing additional Java™ reference documentation, Domino® Designer ships with a help plugin that contains Javadoc™ for additional Domino Designer related APIs.
