Remarks
The Application object is the core object in the ArcMap and ArcCatalog applications. This object represents the application itself and acts as the central point where access is gained to other objects in the system. The Application object's primary interface is IApplication.
Instantiating a new MxDocument starts a new ArcMap application. Cocreating a new MxDocument actually creates a new Application object which in turn co-creates a new MxDocument.
