I am writing a VB6 add-in to fill a shape with text - but not have the
shape expand size or have the text overflow the edges of the shape. I
figured that I could get the area of the shape with AreaIU, and then
would have to do some fancy calculations based on the font face, size,
line spacing, etc. to get a general number of characters that would
basically fill the shape. Is there any easier way to do this? Any
'overflow' property or something of a shape so that I can truncate text
that is overflowing the borders? Thanks.
