Remarks
COM Signature
From vsshell.idl:
HRESULT IVsStatusbar::SetLineColChar(
[in]VARIANT *pvLine,
[in]VARIANT *pvCol,
[in]VARIANT *pvChar
);
The line number, column and character position are displayed as "Ln##Col##Ch##" in the editor information area of the status bar.
For all parameters, pass in nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) to leave their values unchanged. The VARIANT for each parameter must be VT_I2, VT_I4, VT_BSTR, or VT_EMPTY. If it is VT_I2 or VT_I4, the number is formatted into Ln ##, Col ##, Ch ##. If it is VT_BSTR, the text is displayed as is, with no formatting. If it is VT_EMPTY, that field is not displayed.
The difference between column and character positions is evident for characters such as the tab character that can incorporate more than one column.
