Thank you very much for the reply.
Ok now I know something new, i.e. there are some special characters
that will take up two chars. But back in my mind I am wondering
whether there is any overhead to "tell or inform" a mobile phone to
the effect of "this is the first part of a multipart message to be
assembled; this is the second... this is the third and last ...", etc.
In other words, do I have to take into account the "overhead" for
assembling info?
Also, is there any plan to provide a get method to return the no. of
parts? Like: -
int part = getNumberOfParts(String message);
Thank you very much for the kind assistance.
