This is one of those shitty Delphi VCL shortcomings, hard to do/use. There will be other issues like scrolling etc.

Consider using another component which might be a bit better like TListBox.

Some kind of control that isolates the lines from each other and returns an index for what was selected.

Unless you really want to use a TMemo, what is it that you want to do ?
