GDI STROBJ_

Hello all,
I am trying figure out a clean way to do the following:
When passed a string object (STROBJ), I want to be able to break it up into
smaller pieces (essentially breaking the string it contains into several
substrings) either by breaking it up into smaller string objects, or
(preferably) by having a loop that, each time through, grabs part of the string
(and its associated glyphs and information), uses that information, then updates
the original string object to discard the information we have just processed and
repeat this loop until we have processed the entire string object (in chunks).
Anyone know of an easy (or hard but worthwhile :slight_smile: way to do this?

Thanks for the help!
