TCustomMemo Class

TCustomMemo is the base type for memo components, which are multiline edit boxes, including TMemo and TDBMemo.

Pascal
TCustomMemo = class(TCustomEdit);
C++
class TCustomMemo : public TCustomEdit;

TCustomMemo introduces new properties and methods to expand the capabilities of TCustomEdit for handling multiline edit boxes. 

Do not create instances of TCustomMemo. Use TCustomMemo as a base class when declaring control objects that implement a multiline edit control. Properties and methods of TCustomMemo provide basic behavior that descendant classes inherit as well as behavior that components can override to customize their behavior.
