An instrument and method for manipulating an operating member during a surgical procedure. The operating member has suture attached thereto and is supported at a distal end of the instrument. Tension is maintained on the suture material while the operating member is manipulated. For example, the operating member can be a suture anchor that is inserted through a hole formed in hard tissue and oriented to span the hole while tension is maintained on the suture material.
