Remarks
The OleRun function puts an object in the running state. The implementation of OleRun was changed in OLE 2.01 to coincide with the publication of the IRunnableObject interface. You can use OleRun and IRunnableObject::Run interchangeably. OleRun queries the object for a pointer to IRunnableObject. If successful, the function returns the results of calling the IRunnableObject::Run method.
For more information on using this function, see IRunnableObject::Run.
