Remarks

SharePoint commands are methods that can be used in a SharePoint tools extension to call into the SharePoint server object model. After you define a SharePoint command, you can execute it by obtaining an ISharePointConnection object and then calling one of the ExecuteCommand methods. For more information, see How to: Execute a SharePoint Command.
