You could determine whether there is a C-callable API for the Domino database server and, if there is, you could write a plug-in stage. This is not something for the faint-hearted! You need excellent C programming skills (and C++ if you're going to have a custom GUI).
If it's just Lotus spreadsheets that you need to access, you can do this via ODBC. You will need to get an ODBC driver, of course, and figure out how to handle the heavy-duty security in the Lotus Notes environment.
There is no product from Ascential that can help you, but I am aware that at least one Ascential support analyst has succeeded in getting data out of this environment. As far as I know, he never tried to get data into the environment. And the solution did require setting up a special Notes user.
