IShellFolder::CreateViewObject
HRESULT CreateViewObject(
    HWND hwndOwner,
    REFIID riid,
    LPVOID *ppvOut
   );	
Creates a view object of a folder.
Returns NOERROR if successful, or an OLE defined error value otherwise.

hwndOwner
Handle to the owner window from which to create the view object.
riid
Identifier of the interface to return.
ppvOut
Address of a pointer to the view object.

It is important to remember that the COM object created by CreateViewObject must be a different object than the shell folder object. Windows Explorer may call this method more than once to create multiple view objects, and each of these must behave as independent objects. A new view object must be created for each call.
