Example

In this example, the range options for the Seek operation on the index are specified as InclusiveStart or InclusiveEnd when calling the SetRange method.

Try
    Dim conn As New SqlCeConnection("Data Source = MyDatabase.sdf")
    conn.Open()

    Dim cmd As SqlCeCommand = conn.CreateCommand()
    cmd.CommandType = CommandType.TableDirect
    cmd.IndexName = "Orders_PK"
    cmd.CommandText = "Orders"

    ' We are interested in orders that match Order ID = 10020
    '
    cmd.SetRange(DbRangeOptions.Match, New Object() {10020}, Nothing)

    Dim reader As SqlCeDataReader = cmd.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.Default)

    While reader.Read()
        MessageBox.Show(String.Format("{0} ; {1}", reader("Order ID"), reader("Order Date")))
    End While

    ' Now we are interested in orders with Order ID between (10020, 10050)
    '
    cmd.SetRange(DbRangeOptions.InclusiveStart Or DbRangeOptions.InclusiveEnd, New Object() {10020}, New Object() {10050})

    reader = cmd.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.Default)

    ' Now seek to Order ID = 10045
    '
    Dim onRow As Boolean =  reader.Seek(DbSeekOptions.FirstEqual, New Object() {10045})

    ' Now ,the reader will return rows with Order ID >= 10045 <= 10050
    ' because the range was set to (10020, 10050)
    '
    If onRow Then
        While reader.Read()
            MessageBox.Show(String.Format("{0} ; {1}", reader("Order ID"), reader("Order Date")))
        End While
    End If

    // Now seek to Order ID = 10045
    //
    bool onRow = reader.Seek(DbSeekOptions.FirstEqual, new object[] { 10045 });

    // Now ,the reader will return rows with Order ID >= 10045 <= 10050
    // because the range was set to (10020, 10050)
    //
    if (onRow)
