Stretching relatively to specific point

Hello,

 

I am new to Autocad and have a pretty basic problem. I tried to look for the answer but I couldn't find the right answer for my problem. My picture hopefully illustrates my problem. I am trying to use the stretch command to move the door so that the red circled point and the pink circled point have a relative distance of 200.

 

I have already tried to move the door relatively from the pink point but the stretching distance will always start from the red point. 

 

I hope you understood my problem. 

 

Thank you very much

Select the area around the door as normal for the stretch command, at the prompt for the base point click on your point (red circle) then type the word "from" (which is a command modifier) and click on the point (pink circle), now move your cursor over to the right (make sure ortho snap is on F8) and type in the distance 200, that should do it.
