    Count As Integer _
)

Dim instance As EditPoint 
Dim Count As Integer

instance.LineDown(Count)
void LineDown(
    int Count
)
void LineDown(
    [InAttribute] int Count
)
function LineDown(
    Count : int
)

Parameters

  • Count
    Type: System.Int32

    Optional. The number of lines to move the edit point. The default is 1.

If the end of the document is reached before the specified number of lines, the point remains at the end of the document.

If Count is negative, then LineDown performs similarly to LineUp.

Examples

Sub LineDownExample()
   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))
