How to Get the Last Line in TX Text Control ActiveX
Detecting whether the cursor sits on the last line in TX Text Control ActiveX requires checking SelStart against both the full text length and the result of GetLineFromChar against GetLineCount. This VB6 Boolean function combines both conditions to handle edge cases correctly.
I have been asked today how to check, if the cursor is in the last line.
Here is the resulting code snippet, which includes the extra check for the last text position in the document:
Private Function IsLastLine() As Boolean
If TXTextControl1.SelStart = Len(TXTextControl1.Text) Or TXTextControl1.GetLineFromChar(TXTextControl1.SelStart) + 1 = TXTextControl1.GetLineCount Then
IsLastLine = True
Else
IsLastLine = False
End If
End functionIf you have any suggestions or comments please feel free to drop us a line.
