Remarks

This method is called before a command is executed. For an expansion provider, this provides the opportunity to interact with an expansion session.

The base method does nothing if an expansion session has not been started or there is an IntelliSense completer list box active. Otherwise, this method handles the following key commands.

Command	Description
CANCEL	Ends the snippet session by calling the EndTemplateEditing method, leaving the caret where the template put it.
RETURN	If a completer list box is not active, ends the snippet session by calling the EndTemplateEditing method, leaving the caret where the user put it.
BACKTAB	Moves focus to the previous field by calling the GoToPreviousExpansionField method on the IVsExpansionSession object.
TAB	Moves focus to the next field by calling the GoToNextExpansionField method on the IVsExpansionSession object.
