Specifies the position of the file pointer in a BinaryBlock.

Object.Position

Object	BinaryBlock Object with this property
Object.Position	LongInteger with read and write access

The following example reads channel values from a binary file. Because the file pointer is repositioned in the BinaryBlock, the first 25 values (200 / 2 channels / 4 bytes) in this file are ignored.

Copy script

Dim oBlock : Set oBlock = File.GetBinaryBlock()
oBlock.Position = 200
Dim oChn1 : Set oChn1 = oBlock.Channels.Add("FirstChannel", eI32)
Dim oChn2 : Set oChn2 = oBlock.Channels.Add("SecondChannel", eI32)
Dim oMyGrp: Set oMyGrp= Root.ChannelGroups.Add("MyChannelGroup")
Call oMyGrp.Channels.AddDirectAccessChannel(oChn1)
Call oMyGrp.Channels.AddDirectAccessChannel(oChn2)
