Sub OutlineSectionExample()  
   Dim objTextDoc As TextDocument  
   Dim objEditPt As EditPoint, iCtr As Integer  

   ' Create a new text file.  
   DTE.ItemOperations.NewFile("General\Text File")  

   ' Get a handle to the new document and create an EditPoint.  
   objTextDoc = DTE.ActiveDocument.Object("TextDocument")  
   objEditPt = objTextDoc.StartPoint.CreateEditPoint  

   ' Insert ten lines of text.  
   For iCtr = 1 To 10  
     objeditpt.Insert("This is a test." & Chr(13))  
   Next iCtr  
   objEditPt.OutLineSection(10)         
End Sub  

Remarks

If PointOrCount is a 32-bit integer, then OutlineSection creates an outlining section in the text from an edit point to the specified number of characters following the edit point. Each implied newline character at the end of each line counts as one character.
