Can any body help to write a program to count total no. of lines in it and total no of word, space, character.

Total number of lines in what?

I think you never understand my problem. My problem is to count the total no of word, space, line, number in the string of character.
for eg.
consider a string
My name is harish. I am going to school.
In this above string.
total no. of line is 2,
total no of word is 9,
total space is 8,
total character is 39.

please help me to solve my problem.

Here's some general approximations that should get you started

Number of lines = Len(string) - Len(Replace(string, ".", ""))
Number of words = Len(string) - Len(Replace(string, " ", "")) + 1
etc
