   ' Perform search for newline characters and remove them.  
   If strTS <> "" Then  
      txtSel.Delete()  
      strTS = Replace(strTS, vbNewLine, "", Compare:=vbTextCompare)  
      txtSel.Insert(strTS)  
   End If  

   ' Check to see if you want to discard changes.  
   strAnswer = MsgBox("Do you want to discard all changes made?", vbYesNo & vbQuestion)  
   If strAnswer = True Then  
      DTE.UndoContext.SetAborted()  
      MsgBox("Current IsAborted value: " & DTE.UndoContext.IsAborted)  
   End If  

   ' If UndoContext was already open, don't close it.  
   If bIsOpen = True Then  
      ' Close the UndoContext object to commit the changes.  
      DTE.UndoContext.Close()  
   End If  
End Sub  

Remarks

SetAborted sets the IsAborted property for the open UndoContext object to true. When this occurs, all changes made to participating documents since opening the UndoContext object until the UndoContext object is closed are discarded.
