No need for that. Use TextEditor array accessor to access a specific line:
- "MyTextEditor[Line].Text" returns a the "Line" line.
- "MyTextEditor[Line].Length" returns the length of the "Line" line.

Beware that MyTextEditor[Line] returns a virtual temporary object. You 
must not store it.

You must not use Instr(), it cannot handle UTF-8 text. Use 
String.Instr() instead.
