Search AutoCAD MText for a Carriage Return


TriO

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I'm written some code that performs a coordinate shift on Text and Mtext values in an AutoCAD drawing... this works fine but my problem arises when Mtext has more than one line (a CR)

 

I need to know how to search for the CR with the InStr function so that i can proceed to and calculate each line of text individually

 

vbCrPos = InStr(1, WholeString, vbCr, vbTextCompare)

 

i've tried vbCr, vbCrlf, chr(10), chr(13).... and nothing seems to work

 

Does anyone know the correct way to extract to position of a Carriage Return from an Acad string

 

Any help is greatly appreciated...

 

Cheers

 

TriO :)
