IOleInPlaceObject interface

Manages the activation and deactivation of in-place objects, and determines how much of the in-place object should be visible.

You can obtain a pointer to IOleInPlaceObject by calling IUnknown::QueryInterface on IOleObject.

When to implement

You must implement this interface if you are writing an object application that will participate in in-place activation.

This interface is not supported for use across machine boundaries.

Used by an object's immediate container to activate or deactivate the object.

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