SUMMARY
In Microsoft Office, the Microsoft Office Server Extensions (OSE) library allows you to programmatically control objects in Discussions and DiscussionServers collections. You can use the Subject property of the Discussion object to return the title of discussions in a document that is hosted on a Web server extended with Microsoft Office 2000 Server Extensions.
