Determining Line hieght in a rich text object

I am trying to determine the height of a line of text in a text object.  The  
text object will contain rich text, which may include multiple size fonts.  The  
text object contains an array of breaks which allows me to determine _IF_ a  
change took place, but I can't figure out how to tell what the change was.  The  
sign (bit) of the line descriptor in the break array notifies me when a change  
occurs, does anybody know where to look from there?  Any clues would be most  
appreciated.
