question after question 😛 My second post this day 😃

Does exist a property that gives you the lenght in lines of a dynamic textbox?  
Im not talking of the height of the textbox. Its the lenght in lines that a text has. This is to trry a scrollbar for dynamicly loaded data (like XML).

By the way i tried .lenght with no result
