The Pocket Outlook Object Model (POOM) API provides access to Personal Information Manager (PIM) data on Windows Embedded CE-based devices. It mirrors the desktop version of the Outlook Object Model, yet it has a smaller scope of functionality. POOM is a COM-based type library that provides an objectoriented framework for creating, modifying, and displaying IAppointment, ITask and IContact items—and for manipulating the folders that contain them.
For Windows Embedded CE:
For information about the desktop version of the Outlook Object model, see this Microsoft Web site.
For Windows Mobile:
POOM began shipping on mobile devices running the Pocket PC 2000 and Smartphone 2002 platforms. POOM for Windows Mobile is also known as POOM2**. It is an extension of the version of POOM that ships with Windows Embedded CE (also known as POOM1). For information on POOM1, see this Microsoft Web site.**
