visual studio - Can I have a hit-point in VisualStudio that skips lines?

Question

I often run into the situation where I want to disable some code while debugging without actually changing the code.

What I end up doing is having a break-point (usually conditional) and then when the break-point fires I perform a Set Next Statement. This can be very labor intensive when the code is reached many times so I created a macro:

Sub Skip3Lines()
    DTE.ActiveDocument.Selection.LineDown(False, 3)
    DTE.Debugger.SetNextStatement()
End Sub

I then changed my break-point to be a hit-point (right-click -> When Hit...) and told it to execute this macro.

Visual studio was all too happy to spit out the following dialog box:

---------------------------
Error
---------------------------
A macro called a debugger action which is not allowed while responding to an event or while being run because a breakpoint was hit.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

Does anyone know how to get around this?

DTE.ExecuteCommand("Debug.SetNextStatement")
