You cannot call a 32-bit in-process COM object from a 64-bit process.
It is simply not possible.
You have several options. You can try to create the object as an
out-of-process server, which means that it will run as a separate
executable, instead of as a DLL in your process. The server has to
support this explicitly, but Lotus is big enough that it might be there:
import pythoncom
ses = Dispatch('Lotus.NotesSession',
clsctx=pythoncom.CLSCTX_LOCAL_SERVER)
If that doesn't work, you'll have to create your own 32-bit process to
communicate with Lotus, with some kind of cross-process scheme to pass
requests between you and the other process.
