aLines() function will chop it along the chr(13) boundaries, while it's not sure what the definition of a line may be in this case. I'd recommend to Set Memo To [whatever_value_you_like] and use MemLines(lcString) to determine the number of lines. If number of CRs is needed, occurs(chr(13), lcString) would be much faster than aLines(), unless we'd really have some use for the array aLines() will create. BTW, aLines() is limited to 65000 :)
