Parameters
- Line
Type: System.Int32
Required. A vsGoToLineOptions constant representing the line offset, starting at one, from the beginning of the buffer.
- Column
Type: System.Int32
Required. Represents the virtual display column, starting at one, that is the new column location.
- Extend
Type: System.Boolean
Optional. Determines whether the moved text is collapsed or not. The default is false.
Remarks
MoveToDisplayColumn moves the selected text to the specified line and column. If the column offset is in the middle of a tab character in the line, the active point is moved to the position immediately preceding the tab.
If the values of Line or Column are zero, then the active point remains at the current line number and/or column number.

' Go to first line in document and select it.
