Are you trying to back up in the source code, un-executing something that
has been executed already?  If so, you cannot do it, at least not in that
general a fashion.

What you can do is back out the call stack.  In the message pane at the
bottom, select the "Threads, call stacks, and data" tab, then right click
on one of the stack frame entries and select "Set Execution Point".  This
will have the effect of backing you out of the method, so a "step in" will
start the method call over again.

Be aware that this will not undo changes to objects on the heap, so it
might not make sense to do this in all cases.  But it does work well in a
surprising number of cases.  This is a very useful feature.
