From the VB forum there is some anwers here : http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.p...-Seek-function

You can set the position with Seek.

VB Code:
1.Dim ByteToGet As Byte

2.

3.Open "c:\test.txt" For Binary Access Read As #1

4. Seek #1, 2

5. Get #1, , ByteToGet

6. Debug.Print ByteToGet

7. Seek #1, 1

8. Get #1, , ByteToGet

9. Debug.Print ByteToGet

10.Close #1


Didn't test, hope it works
If I am not mistaken, you can use seek in two ways.

To read the current position, it accepts 1 parameter:
pos = Seek #1

To set the position it accepts 2 parameters, but is doesn't return a value:
Seek #1, 0

where the second parameter is the position to jump to.

Probably MSDN has two different pages for Seek (just like it has for Date)

I can't check it right now, because i am not behind a machine with VB6 at the moment, but this is what i remember from it.
