Take a look at Graphics.MeasureString

>Anyone have any idea how to do this in C#? I need a c# equivalent to fontmetric(). We are adjusting text to fit within an editbox so the lines get broken in appropriate places (inserting carriage returns where we want them so it doesn't adjust on it's own and break it up inappropriately):

>(Code below only to show how we are using fontmetric())

>Thisform.txtorderby is an editbox.
>Thisform.plorderbycat just allows for 5 spaces for a category to be included such as [123] before each list on each line.
