Syntax

enum SeekOrigin
    SEEK_FROM_START = 0
    SEEK_FROM_CURRENT = 1

end enum

Notes

• Any other value is FS_INVALID_ARGUMENT.

using fs


dim as MemoryStream m = MemoryStream( "0123456789" )
print m.Seek( 3 ).Value( )                        '' 3
print m.Seek( 2, SEEK_FROM_CURRENT ).Value( )     '' 5
print m.Seek( -1, SEEK_FROM_END ).Value( )        '' 9
