Microsoft® Office Communicator Automation API exposes the following cocreatable classes.

An application must first create an instance of this co-class to access the basic Communicator functionality programmatically, including signing in, signing out, querying contacts, adding or removing a contact from the contact lists of the signed-in user, querying and managing presence, and initiating an instant messaging session including voice chat or a phone conversation with a contact.
