Comments

Before calling this function, you must declare a variable of data type L_UINT. Then, pass the address of the variable in the puLen parameter. This function will update the variable with the length of the annotation object's text.

When hObject is of type ANNOBJECT_RTF, *puLen is updated with the length of the object's unformatted text. To get the length of the formatted text, see L_AnnGetTextRTF.
