Thanks for the macro. These lines will prevent the document from losing focus in VS2008:
DTE.ActiveDocument.Selection.StartOfLine(0)
DTE.ActiveDocument.Selection.LineDown(False, 9) ‘the 9 comes from the numbers of lines in propertyProcedure
DTE.ActiveDocument.Selection.EndOfLine()
DTE.ActiveDocument.Selection.NewLine()
DTE.ActiveDocument.Activate() ‘ else the cursor is gone or so, a little bit strange (focus is lost)
DTE.UndoContext.Close()

It also sets the mouse cursor beneath the property which is very usefull when adding a lot of prop’s.

Thanks for the macro.
