That's when TieCal is talking to Lotus Notes (using IBM's functions,
so it's outside of TieCal).
You could try shutting down lotus notes completely and then restarting
it (you can use the killnotes.exe program [1] after you have closed
notes to make sure anything that has to do with lotus notes is killed
- but please note that killnotes will completely kill notes, no
warnings, no delay - it will just die - so make sure you close and
save anything in notes first)
Hopefully, this is just a temporary glitch.

No TieCal shouldn't care where the files are, as long as Lotus Notes
can find them (TieCal only access notes data by talking through the
lotus notes API and never tries to read these files directly)

Isak,
I rebooted my laptop and tried to change the Lotus Notes DB and it
crashed the same way again. I used KillNotes and it reports that it
killed 0 processes that loaded nnotes.dll.
I am not sure what to try next.

Yeah I'm a bit confused too. It seems TieCal doesn't get permission to
talk to notes. Perhaps if you run TieCal as administrator it works?
You can right click, select "Run as administrator" and see what
happens.
