Lotus Notes allows fields to contain multiple values (lists). SQL does not support this natively. NotesSQL 2.06 usually handles this by converting multi-value fields into a single text string separated by a delimiter (often a semicolon or comma). Queries must account for this parsing.
The (version 2.06) is an ODBC (Open Database Connectivity) driver that allows external applications to access IBM Lotus Notes/Domino databases (.NSF files) using standard SQL queries. Version 2.06 is one of the final releases from the early 2000s, often referred to as “Lotus NotesSQL 206” or “NotesSQL 2.06”. : Most versions of NotesSQL are 32-bit
