IPOutlookApp
A version of this page is also available for

The IPOutlookApp interface represents the Outlook Mobile application object. This object serves the following purposes:
- As the root object, it provides access to all of the other objects in the POOM hierarchy.
- It provides direct access to newly created items, without having to traverse the object hierarchy.
- It provides direct access to existing items.
An application creates this interface by calling CoCreateInstance, using the CLSID_Application globally unique identifier (GUID), and receives a reference to an application object. The application object is the only POOM object retrieved with CoCreateInstance.
