The IHlinkSite interface provides methods for a hyperlink to retrieve the moniker or the interface on its hyperlink container. The navigation process which resolves a hyperlink uses this information to efficiently handle internal (within the same container) and external (to a different container) hyperlink references.
When to Implement
Implement IHlinkSite when you want to hyperlink to other documents. For each hyperlink object provided by the system, a third party, or that you create, you provide an IHlinkSite object. One site object can support multiple hyperlinks.
