Thanks for the help. I realize that the textVar cannot exceed values that can't be held by a UInt16 var. It just seems kind of weird that you are setting the value of a UInt16var to a datatype that is a 32 bit. Not so much the value part but the fact that they are differing data types. Jay

Well, a UInt32 can hold a wider range of integers than a UInt16, so you need to ensure that the string doesn't exceed the max value of UInt16.
