Thanks everyone - This must be one of those "I'm an idiot" days. I defined the TEXTMsg160 variable and did the EVAL from the variable field to the fixed field and then went ahead and typed the name of the variable length field in the PLIST definition.

Shouldn't the EVAL that moves the string from the variable length

The code is ...
C EVAL TEXTMsg160 = '(PCTAlerts) ' +
C %trim(TEXTMsg)
C CALL 'UTJSMSMSG' SndSmsMsg
Yes, if TEXTMsg is 'My message', TEXTMsg160 should be '(PCTAlerts) My
message' (with a bunch of trailing whitespace), as opposed to
'(PCTAlerts) xxMy message', where xx is the length of 'My message' in hex.
However, it's hard to say why your UTJSMSMSG program is not getting the
data you expect without knowing how the SndSmsMsg PLIST is defined.
