Try this:
the formattedHeight of (line 1 to 3 of field "Whatever") \
div the lineHeight of field "Whatever"
The formattedHeight of a chunk of a field gives you the height in pixels,
and dividing it by the lineHeight (assuming the field's fixedLineHeight is
true) gives you the number of screen lines.
