        Constants.vsViewKindPrimary);  

    // Create an EditPoint at the start of the new document.  
    TextDocument doc =   
        (TextDocument)dte.ActiveDocument.Object("TextDocument");  
    EditPoint point = doc.StartPoint.CreateEditPoint();  

    // Insert 10 lines of text.  
    for (int i = 1; i <= 10; ++i)  
        point.Insert("This is a test.\n");  

    // Display EditPoint properties.  
    MessageBox.Show(  
        "AbsoluteCharOffset: " + point.AbsoluteCharOffset + "\n" +   
        "DisplayColumn: " + point.DisplayColumn + "\n" +   
        "AtEndOfDocument: " + point.AtEndOfDocument + "\n" +   
        "AtEndOfLine: " + point.AtEndOfLine + "\n" +   
        "AtStartOfDocument: " + point.AtStartOfDocument + "\n" +   
        "AtStartOfLine: " + point.AtStartOfLine);  
}

Remarks

The column numbering starts at one. The display column may be different from the value of the LineCharOffset if the line contains tab characters. DisplayColumn uses the global setting for tab size to determine the displayed column.
