Just in case someone is searching for a solution.

void CCCenterText::CenterText(CString Text)
{
m_wndEdit.SetWindowText(Text);
m_wndEdit.CenterWindow(&m_wndStatic); // Center the edit window vertically and horizontally

// Calculate the height of the font
CDC \*pDC = m\_wndEdit.GetDC();
CFont \*pEditFont = m\_wndEdit.GetFont();

CFont \*pFont = pDC->SelectObject(pEditFont);

TEXTMETRIC tm;
pDC->GetTextMetrics(&tm);
int LineHeight = tm.tmHeight;

pDC->SelectObject(pFont);
ReleaseDC(pDC);

// Get the edit control position
CRect pos;
m\_wndEdit.GetWindowRect(pos);
ScreenToClient(&pos);

// Adjust the height position of the edit control 
int LineCount = m\_wndEdit.GetLineCount();
int posHeight = LineHeight \* LineCount;

m\_wndEdit.SetWindowPos(&m\_wndStatic,pos.left,pos.top,pos.Width(),posHeight,0);
m\_wndEdit.CenterWindow(&m\_wndStatic);

}
