Finding Information About Objects

This content is outdated and is no longer being maintained. It is provided as a courtesy for individuals who are still using these technologies. This page may contain URLs that were valid when originally published, but now link to sites or pages that no longer exist.

Information about objects is documented in various sections of the Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 MAPI Reference. Because almost all MAPI objects expose a single MAPI interface, the approach is to treat objects and the interfaces that they expose as synonymous.

You can find information about objects and interfaces in the following sections.
