Just "Annuler"?

Annuler is already used for both "Undo" and "Cancel". (*)
Using another word would probably be better.
 - Défaire ?
 - Rétablir ? (usually used for Redo in Edit menus)
- Restaurer ? (sometimes used for "Revert [document]" in File menus — but usually it is "Revenir à la version précédente") 
 - ...
(*) And that's why you should not make dialogs like this : "Unable to undo this operation. [ Cancel ]". Once translated, this gets pretty confusing :-D
