Examples: NotesStream class
This agent creates a stream, writes to it the text value of the Body item of the selected document, changes position in the stream, and reads the stream.

Sub Initialize

 Dim db As NotesDatabase

 Dim doc As NotesDocument
 Dim stream As NotesStream

 Set doc = dc.GetFirstDocument
 REM Create stream and display properties
 Set stream = session.CreateStream

 "Charset = " & stream.Charset & Chr(13) & _

 "Position = " & stream.Position,, "After creating stream"
 REM Write text of Body item to stream and display properties
