When To Use
IPictureElement is the generic interface implemented by all picture elements (BmpPictureElement and EmfPictureElement). Use this interface when you want to manipulate the properties associated with the picture element.
PictureElements are similar to OleFrame objects, but not quite the same. The initial difference is that PictureElements are the elements themselves, while OleFrames are the frames around the object. On a more subtle level, OleFrame objects can contain pictures (bmp files, etc.), but they can also contain other types of OLE objects (word documents, excel spreadsheets, etc.). PictureElements can only contain pictures (bmp or emf files).
PictureElements can be added to a data frame, but they are normally used within a page layout.
