Function MaxLine() Foundation

Determines the longest line in a (formatted) string.

MaxLine( <cString> ;
       ) --> nLineLength
Return

Returns the length of the longest line in a (formatted) string as a numeric value.

Description

Any character but Chr(13) and Chr(10) is counted. If a tab (Char(9)) is contained in a string it should be converted to spaces before MaxLine() is called. This can be accomplished with TabExpand().
