Answer:

unit Unit2;

interface

uses
  Windows, Messages, SysUtils, Variants, Classes, Graphics, Controls, Forms,
  Dialogs, Domino_TLB, Menus, ComCtrls;
const
  PASSWD = 'ur70';
type
  TForm2 = class(TForm)

    Scan1: TMenuItem;
    procedure Create1Click(Sender: TObject);
    procedure Init1Click(Sender: TObject);
    procedure Scan1Click(Sender: TObject);
  private
    { Private declarations }
  public
    { Public declarations }
  end;

var
  Form2: TForm2;
  Session: TNotesSession;
implementation

{$R *.dfm}

procedure TForm2.Create1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
  Session := TNotesSession.Create(nil);
end;

procedure TForm2.Init1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
  Session.Initialize(PASSWD);
end;

  for x := 0 to VarArrayHighBound(AddrBooks, 1) -
    VarArrayLowBound(AddrBooks, 1) do
  begin

    begin
      addrBook.Open;
    end
    else
      addrBook := nil;
    if (addrBook <> nil) then
    begin
      Views := addrBook.Views;

      begin

        if copy(view_name, 1, 1) = '$' then
          view_name := copy(view_name, 2, length(view_name) - 1);
        people := addrBook.GetView(view_name);
        person := people.GetFirstDocument;
        if Person <> nil then
        begin
          Items := Person.Items;
          for z := 0 to VarArrayHighBound(Items, 1) -
            VarArrayLowBound(Items, 1) do
          begin
            Item := NotesItem(IUnknown(Items[z]));
            tc := tv_info.Items.AddChild(tn, Item.Name);

            people := addrBook.GetView(view_name);
            person := people.GetFirstDocument;

            while (Person <> nil) do
            begin
              try
                try
                  tv_info.Items.AddChild(tc, Person.GetFirstItem(Item.Name).Text
                    {Item.Text});
                except
                end;
              finally
                Person := People.GetNextDocument(Person);
              end;
            end;
          end;
        end;
      end;

    end;
  end;
end;

end.

you can get type library info on

ftp://ftp.lotus.com/pub/lotusweb/devtools/comdoc.chm

it work IMHO only for LotusNotes Domino ver 5 or highe
