Windows API: Characters count in RTF Text 2003-04-29 -- Jim Kane Newsgroups: comp.lang.clarion
This is easy to do with one of two api calls.
The GetWindowTextLength(Rtfclassname.hwnd) will tell you the number of
characters in the control but doesn't have any flexibility in how the count
is done.
If you use the sendmessage() api and send the EM_GetTextLengthEX message
to the rtf control you can get back the character count or an approximation
with many options. Both APIs are well explained in msdn along with all the
options for EM_GetTextLengthEX
