<OutAttribute> ByRef piLine As Integer, _
<OutAttribute> ByRef piStartCol As Integer, _
<OutAttribute> ByRef piEndCol As Integer _
) As Integer
'Usage

Dim piLine As Integer
Dim piStartCol As Integer

[OutAttribute] int% piLine,
[OutAttribute] int% piStartCol,
[OutAttribute] int% piEndCol
)
function GetInitialExtent(
piLine : int,
piStartCol : int,
piEndCol : int
) : int
Parameters
piLine
Type: System.Int32%[out] Returns the line number of the characters that should not be obscured.
piStartCol
Type: System.Int32%[out] Returns the column number of the first character that should not be obscured.
piEndCol
Type: System.Int32%[out] Returns the last character in the span that should not be obscured. This must be on the same line as piLine.
Return Value

Remarks
COM Signature
From textmgr.idl:
HRESULT IVsCompletionSet::GetInitialExtent(
[out] long *piLine,
[out] long *piStartCol,
[out] long *piEndCol
);
Use this method to tell the view where to place the completion box. By specifying values for piLine, piCol and piLen, you are indicating a span of text that the view should not obscure with the completion box. If the value of the piLen parameter is set to zero, then an anchor coordinate (piCol, piLine) must be provided.
