i haven't tried this but I think you need to count the number
of line breaks of the text in the textbox. This should be dependant
on the language used. If it is HTML you would be looking for <BR>
If it is another language such as C#/C++, you would be looking for \n or similar. Read this here
http://www.csharpfriends.com/Articl...px?articleID=29 for this. I think this would work for both
VB .Net and C#.

In VB [.Net], it is something like vbCrLf (can't remember exactly what it's like)

Also try using regular expressions.

One quick way that should work, although maybe not the most efficient, is to split the text on line breaks

LineArray = Split(text1.text, vbCrLf)
NumLines = Ubound(LineArray) ' You may need to add or subtract 1, arrays count from 0
