Windows Process Description:

The NameCtrl Control, defined in the name.dll file, is an ActiveX control that allows a web page to display presence information for people allowing the user to take various actions with respect to those people through an on-object user interface in Windows SharePoint Services. This DLL is installed on the client computer during the Microsoft Office 2007 system setup.

When the user passes the pointer over the name of the user on a SharePoint site, the name.dll module calls on the EnsureIMNControl function defined in the ows.js script file and creates the following NameCtrl control on the page:

new ActiveXObject("Name.NameCtrl.1")

Custom control for displaying presence information can be created by developers if it has the same ProgID as the Name.NameCtrl.1, if it uses the same method or property names, and if it provides the same functionality. The functions that can be created should be able to handle the event in which the online status of a specified person changes.

The name.dll file to return the online status of the user, which is typically to draw the pawn icon, uses the GetStatus method. For every user on whom the GetStatus method is called, the events are triggered when the online status of that person changes and the same bstrID value is passed to this method to an event handler.

Another function called by the name.dll module is the ShowOOUI method, which displays an on-object user interface for a specified user name that is typically used with the onmouseover event. For every user on whom the GetStatus method is called, the events are triggered when that person's online status are changed and the same bstrID value is passed to this method then passed to an event handler.

The DoAccelerator method opens the drop-down menu for online presence information if an on-object UI is being displayed. This method is used for accessibility, and it should be called when the user presses ALT+SHIFT+F10.
