Thanks guys for this consideration.
What my scenario is:

Using my program i need to exactly count the number of characters input in any edit control or any where i could enter text. So be it visible characters like the alphabets and numbers or be it a escape character like (CR,LF,space or bell etc..) what my program intends to do is count each visible cahracters and non visible like the "\n" (CR) or a "\t" tab or any such key strokes that is invisible but produced as a result of a key stroke.
