Hello all,

Is there a way to count how many lines are in the current selection?

I've been looking for it but haven't found anything. I've found the Count property of Paragraphs, Words, & Sentences; but no Lines
property.

If not possible to count lines, how about counting the number of paragraph marks in the current selection?

Thanks for any help anyone can provide,

Conan Kelly

Sub Scratchmacro()
Dim oRng As Range
Set oRng = Selection.Range
MsgBox oRng.ComputeStatistics(wdStatisticLines)
End Sub
