Don't tell me. I was playing with an alternative to MessageBox for weeks (DOS version took just a few hours), and all it had was a n editbox and a commandbutton group. Sizing them to fit was a pain (you may find it used in VPasns - the solitaire game I've sent), and guessing (read as "trying to calculate") the size of the editbox once it receives its text was the worst. I decided I could live with one extra line at the end, because the other choice was more extra lines or fewer lines than needed. The exact number of lines was impossible to get.
