  Description
 
  COleClientItem is the Microsoft Foundation Class Library base class for
  Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) client items. A client item is a
  component of a compound document (OLE client document) and usually
  represents data in a particular format. Think of the client item as the
  client application's view of data provided by the server. This data
  could be contained in a child window, be represented directly in some
  region of the main window, or be invisible.
 
  Note Windows 3.1 OLE documentation refers to client items as "objects."
  This reference uses the term "item" to differentiate the OLE entity from
  the corresponding C++ class object.
