    Dim iLineIndex As Integer = SendMessage(hwnd, EM_LINEINDEX, ilastLine, 0)
Dim iLineLength As Integer = SendMessage(hwnd, EM_LINELENGTH, iLineIndex, 0)
if iLineLength = 0 return Nothing ' or return ""
Dim sb As StringBuilder = New StringBuilder(iLineLength)

sb.Append(ChrW(iLineLength+1))</code>

    I can’t debug for you, catch exception and make breakpoint there and see when it happens.

    Yes catch it and check all relevant parameters in code.

    <code>Try
    SendMessage(hwnd, EM_GETLINE, ilastLine, sb)
Catch ex As Exception
    MsgBox(&quot;SendMessage failed &quot; &amp; ex.Message)
End Try</code>

    Set breakpoint at MsgBox
