The primary interface for a MapFrame object is IMapFrame, which inherits from IFrameElement. The object also implements the IMapGrids and IMapFrameEvents interfaces (the MapFrame object is an event source). A MapFrame object holds a a reference to a Map .
This object can be used to obtain the map within, or to manipulate the locator rectangles found within the frame.
Geometry: MapFrame accepts geometry of type esriGeometryEnvelope or esriGeometryPolygon. If an envelope is passed it, it is converted to a Polygon internally. The geometry represents the geometry of the frame that is drawn and it is typically a rectangle.
