I guess it is more classes to visit, what you need
If you get along with Domino Designer, and don't need necessarily a button, you may start with an Agent - Advantage: This is visible for all documents and all forms, if done right it will work from both, the view and from within the document (could even switch the document into editmode if necessary. There is a class library and sample codes for all this in the help in designer (F1)
Such an Aktion ends up in the Aktions menu. - If any of this is new for you, or you don't know how to do so I realy realy do think you should go to multiple classes or hire someone in your area for support. Same if you have not been using Notes Mail for some months, as you most likely need to hit what folks expect in the user interface
Once you have created this Agent (or some Action button in the relewant forms) I would go for 'LotusScript' which is a Visual basic dialect allowing a lot of things within the client and external actions - e.g. to access the outside via com or to call a dll.
Honestly, I am not in the business to provide you with at least severl hours of free documentation of allready documented stuff and tons of free tips off all kind to get you running, as this would not pay for my bills, and is just beyond what you offer in places like this one.
It takes most people with guidance just hours to get from zereo to where you are planing to go., Saying this, I don't think you are planing to go far enough, as you have most likely not used Notes for a bunch of munch intensively.
If you have a budget for this, you can reach me at Info2@Intellisys.de, I have worked for folks integrating the outside world, before, but I am in south Germany (Stuttgart area), you might be better on with someone nearby.
Anyhow, wish you the best of luck!
