Remarks
Typically, you specify the display name in a user interface or from the command line before beginning the enrollment process so that the name can be associated with the dummy certificate in the request store. To retrieve that value and use it here, call the CertificateFriendlyName on the IX509Enrollment interface.
Call the SetValueOnCertificate method to associate the property with a certificate. Call the FriendlyName property to retrieve the display name.
