Private Declare Function SendMessageLong Lib "user32" Alias "SendMessageA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal wMsg As Long, ByVal wParam As Long, ByVal lParam As Long) As Long
 
Private Const EM_GETLINECOUNT = &HBA
 
 
'To Get How Many Lines In Text Box, in the textbox change event, put
 
Dim lineCount As Long
On Local Error Resume Next
lineCount = SendMessageLong(RichTextBox1.hwnd, EM_GETLINECOUNT, 0&, 0&)
Label1 = Format$(lineCount, "##,###")

[code]
'VB only way
function linecount() as long
Dim a() as string
a = Split(rtb1.Text,vbcrlf)
linecount=ubound(a+1)
end function
