Calculate the lenght of text?...

[VcDeveloper]

How do I calculate the lenght of text word? For example I want lenght of
each of my column in a listView so I can set there width.

I now how to do it in vc++ 6.0, but how is it done in Csharp?

Thanks!...

The Graphics.MeasureString() method is one way to determine the
graphical dimensions of a string. That _seems_ to be what you're asking
about, but if it's not you should probably be more specific about what
"length" you want.
