Steve,
I don't think this will be an issue for you but I remember that there is
an
upper limit of the size
of the message to be displayed.
I ran into it once several years ago and I think it was about 1500
characters. Anything over that
didn't seem to want to work.
Jan

Steve,
You are working too hard here!
SET VAR vmsg = (''''+.vmsg + 'Date Billed = ' & (CTXT(.vbilldate)) +
.vcrlf+'''')
PAUSE 2 USING &vmsg +
OPTION MESSAGE_FONT_NAME ARIAL FB|MESSAGE_FONT_SIZE 15|MESSAGE_BOLD OFF
Instead, thy this
SET VAR vmsg = (.vmsg + 'Date Billed = ' & (CTXT(.vbilldate)) + .vcrlf)
PAUSE 2 USING .vmsg +
OPTION MESSAGE_FONT_NAME ARIAL FB|MESSAGE_FONT_SIZE 15|MESSAGE_BOLD OFF
.vmsg will use the text you have built without any problem interpreting
it.
