Using our new drag and drop development tool, BlackBerry MDS Studio, and the BlackBerry Enterprise Solution, you can wirelessly access your Lotus Domino Web Services. In your Lotus Domino Web Service environment, create an Agent to generate a WDSL that specifies the functionality that you want mobile access to. Then just point MDS Studio at that WSDL and it will automatically generate the code and application, which you can then modify as desired.
