Using MS-Access 2.0 (16Bit) I cann open the 32BIT datasource without
any Problems on my NT 4 Machine.

An rather strange solution would be to include the ODBC-Links into an
MDB-Database.

The ODBC.INI does contain an driver32 entry pointing to the
PostgreSQL-Driver.

Is it possible to connect your Lotus driectly to an ODBC-Datasource?
The Setup-Lines looks like tirectly connecting to the dirver
(bypassing the driver-manager).
