Comments

The GetPosition method returns the position and dimensions of an area of the control.

The exact position and size for a given area (described by Area) is returned. If an area is not available, the Width and Height values are 0.

GetPosition uses the units native to the container application (e.g., Visual Basic uses TWIPS by default, Visual C++ uses pixels). GetPositionPix always uses pixels. GetPositionV should be used when using Internet Explorer.
