Remarks

The IMAPIFormFactory interface is based on the IClassFactory interface, and objects that implement IMAPIFormFactory should also inherit from IClassFactory.

IMAPIFormFactory is the interface that form viewers use to create new form objects when a form server supports more than one message class (that is, more than one type of form object).
