MORE INFORMATION
Exchange 2000 supports the following APIs:
 * Collaboration Data Objects (CDO). Create messaging, calendaring, and contact management applications with minimal coding.
 * ActiveX Data Objects (ADO). Perform high-level dual navigation for the information store hierarchy, and obtain objects from information store items.
 * OLE DB. Navigate the information store hierarchy, and obtain objects from information store items.
 * Microsoft Win32. Standard Windows APIs that use the new Installable File System (IFS) to provide file system access to the information store.

NOTE: You can use APIs in conjunction with event sinks written in C++ or Microsoft Visual Basic for managing document workflow, scanning for viruses, preventing large attachment downloads, and so on.
