CEdit::FmtLines

Syntax

BOOL FmtLines( BOOL bAddEOL );

Parameters

bAddEOL

Specifies whether soft line-break characters are to be inserted. A value of TRUE inserts the characters; a value of FALSE removes them.

Remarks

Sets the inclusion of soft line-break characters on or off within a multiple-line edit control. A soft line break consists of two carriage returns and a linefeed inserted at the end of a line that is broken because of word wrapping. A hard line break consists of one carriage return and a linefeed. Lines that end with a hard line break are not affected by FmtLines.

Windows will only respond if the CEdit object is a multiple-line edit control.

FmtLines only affects the buffer returned by GetHandle and the text returned by WM_GETTEXT. It has no impact on the display of the text within the edit control.

Return Value

TRUE if any formatting occurs; otherwise FALSE.
