Implementing an interface doesn't necessarily mean implementing all methods of that interface to do anything more than return E_NOTIMPL or S_OK as appropriate. The following table identifies the methods of the interfaces listed in the What Support for an Interface Means topic that a control may implement in this manner. Any method not listed here must be fully implemented if the interface is supported.

- A control with property pages must support IOleObject::DoVerb for the OLEIVERB_PROPERTIES and OLEIVERB_PRIMARY verbs. A control that can be active must support DoVerb for the OLEIVERB_INPLACEACTIVATE verb. A control that can be UI active must also support DoVerb for the OLEIVERB_UIACTIVATE verb.
- If a control supports IPersistStream or IPersistStreamInit and can return an accurate value, then it should do so.
