IOleInPlaceActiveObject interface (oleidl.h)

Provides a direct channel of communication between an in-place object and the associated application's outer-most frame window and the document window within the application that contains the embedded object. The communication involves the translation of messages, the state of the frame window (activated or deactivated), and the state of the document window (activated or deactivated). Also, it informs the object when it needs to resize its borders, and manages modeless dialog boxes.

Inheritance

The IOleInPlaceActiveObject interface inherits from IOleWindow. IOleInPlaceActiveObject also has these types of members:
