IScopeAdm interface
[Indexing Service is no longer supported as of Windows XP and is unavailable for use as of Windows 8. Instead, use Windows Search for client side search and Microsoft Search Server Express for server side search.]
Manages a scope definition for a catalog within Indexing Service. Use scope objects to force rescans and modify logon information for remote scopes. A scope defines a path to a local, remote, or virtual directory. You can create scope objects through the AddScope, GetScopeByPath, or GetScopeByAlias methods of ICatAdm.
