Hi, Kyle!
First of all thanks for your reply, I really appreciate your willing to help.
The matter is that I've already done like this. The problem starts when I have some really long word somewhere in a line consisting of, for example, 20 characters. Just to be more clear let's take that one line can fit 50 characters. If this long word occurs at the middle of the line, it doesn't fit and goes to the next line. So, my first line contains about 30 characters and the second may be 50 characters long. Thus, 90-characters text may be split into 2 or 3 lines.
And I can't count the whole table length correctly, having problems with inserting page breaks later.
I don't know, is there a possibility to use hyphenation, but I'm not allowed to use it anyway.
Unfortunately, googling didn't result in my finding some built-in FormCalc method which could allow doing smth like what I need.
I even tried searching line feed symbol in a cell.rawValue praying that Adobe does some kind of substitution for itself. Of course, it turned into a fail.
As for I needed a quick fix for that, I found some "magic numbers" of symbols, when I can suppose the cell is 2-3-4-5 lines length. But it is definitely not even a workaround, it'll work just until another "unconvenient" text will happen.
So, my question is still open.
If you need more details why I need to know the number of lines in a cell, maybe my previous question (still without an answer) will clarify it. The present issue is a workaround for my previos problem: ![]()

And as usual, this workaround is almost good, but...
