Applications User Interface

An important task in developing any application is designing the user interface. A poorly designed user interface can contribute to confusion, errors, and frustration for the user. A well-designed user interface can make the application intuitive and increase user efficiency.

Your user interface could be a Microsoft® Word document, a Microsoft® Outlook® form, or another presentation layer you design. These all work, because workflows are triggered by any save or post in the workflow folder, and the Microsoft® Exchange 2000 Server Web Store provides heterogeneous document storage. Whatever you use as your user interface is up to you and has no relation to the functionality addressed by CDO Workflow objects. Typically, the user interface is independent of CDO Workflow objects and runs on a client computer or in the browser.
