Hi Cetin,

> textbox that uses displaypath(memofield,nchars), mline(memolfield,1) ...)

I've thought about using displaypath() like you've suggested, but how does one use this function when dealing with a proportional font? In other words, how will displaypath() know where to add the "..." ellipsis if you're using a very small or very large font?

I did some research and it appears that the Windows API DrawText() and CreateFont() functions can be used to create "ellipsis-ized" strings appropriate for a specific font and display width. Have you used these functions or can their functionality be implemented using VFP functions?

Regards,
