Do you want to count each line (take a look at the right bottom corner of MS Visual Studio window) or do you want to count only lines with text?

Why not just look at the screen?
If you go to the last line in the file with CTRL+END it shows you the line number on the status bar...
Or press CTRL-G and the "Go to line" box shows you how many lines there are...

If you mean "I want the number of lines in all files in my project or solution" then that is not a sensible (or indeed useful) number: What if it is WPF? Do you count XAML file lines? What about .designer.cs lines? Do they count?
If all you want to to count text lines in files, then doing it within VS is a bit silly - it is a lot easier to write a simple app to do it externally (or find an existing one on the internet).

Please refer the Visual Studio addin given in this CodeProject article
Line Counter - Writing a Visual Studio 2005 & 2008 Add-In[^]

As shown in the article this addin counts the Code lines, Comment lines, Total lines etc for each file and also project wise.

I think it may be helpful to you.

Solution 2

did you mean that how can we view the line no. in VS ??
then goto tools-->options-->click on the TextEditor then on All Languages, check the text boxes below display heading.
hope this was what you wanted to know...?
