I've found that on several occasions my call to get the Line count for a
TRichEdit returns the line number I happen to be working on not that
total lines.

I've used     rtEdit->Perform(EM_GETLINECOUNT, 0, 0);
and I've used rtEdit->Lines->Count;

I can trace through the code and the number returned can be very wrong.

Anyone else having this problem?
And more importantly have you found a fix?

hi Claude,

i had the same problem last week.
i could work around, because i have the same content
of the richedit in a StringList and there, count seems to
be ok....

i need the count to calculate my QuickReport. it was
very strange that there where less lines than expected!

Hi, Claude.

From the beta SDK help:

"If the word wrap feature is enabled, the number of lines can change
when the dimensions of the editing window change."

Could that be it?  If not, could you send code/text samples to
demonstrate the problem?  (Rich Edit controls are something of a hobby
of mine and I am unaware of this problem.)
