 virtual bool MoveToFirst();

 abstract bool MoveToFirst();
public virtual bool MoveToFirst ();

abstract member MoveToFirst : unit -> bool
override this.MoveToFirst : unit -> bool

Public Overridable Function MoveToFirst () As Boolean
Public MustOverride Function MoveToFirst () As Boolean

Returns

true if the XPathNavigator is successful moving to the first sibling node of the current node; false if there is no first sibling, or if the XPathNavigator is currently positioned on an attribute node. If the XPathNavigator is already positioned on the first sibling, XPathNavigator will return true and will not move its position.

If MoveToFirst() returns false because there is no first sibling, or if XPathNavigator is currently positioned on an attribute, the position of the XPathNavigator is unchanged.
