Get the width and height of a text without having a Form

I created this class as an answer to a question asked in the General VB Forum and thought that it could fit here. This class has a TextWidth and a TextHeight property which works the same way as it does for a Form, a PictureBox, or the Printer object. The only difference is that you don't need any Forms or Controls to use it. So if you need to messure the text length (in pixels) from within an ActiveX DLL this is the code to use.

The class expose a Font object property and the TextWidth/Height methods, so it's very easy to use:

VB Code:

Dim oFont As CTextSize
Set oFont = New CTextSize
 
With oFont.Font
    .Name = "Times New Roman"
    .Size = 12
    .Bold = True
End With
MsgBox oFont.TextWidth("Hello World!")

The Font object is initilized as MS Sans Serif 8pt, which is used if you don't change it.

EDIT: Corrected a possible memory leak.
