Hi Mike,
What is the maximum string length allowed?
I'm writing an application which needs a string up to 400 or so characters long and if I create this as a single string the device resets immediately I run it, the maximum being 255 characters
However if I build it up by concatenating shorter strings, things are OK.
e.g. This 500 character string works.
