Iain,

Your Welcome, by the way the 144 count somebody told you is wrong.

Just for reference SMS is 140 Bytes, and 7 bit text is packed into those bytes meaning we can fit 160 characters in.

The UDH for a concat message takes 6 bytes leaving 134 bytes to contain the message, which means you can pack 153 7 bit characters in.

If you using 16 bit characters (UCS-2 encoding) you can get 67 characters in (which you might also need to know for your billing system).

Regards

Ben
