   objSel.DestructiveInsert("NEW TEXT")  
End Sub  

Sub Position(ByVal pos As vsStartOfLineOptions, ByVal ipos As Integer)  
   ' Moves the insertion point down to the beginning of the next line,   
   ' and then highlights the right-most four characters.  
   objSel.LineDown()  
   objSel.StartOfLine(vsStartOfLineOptions.vsStartOfLineOptionsFirstText)
