I thought the 255 limit applied to string constants. Longer strings can be broken up and concatenated. For example:

m.myvar = "first long part " +;
          "second long part "+;
                  .
                  .
          "rest of string"
m.myfile = "c:\Timothy Bowen.txt"
STRTOFILE(m.myvar,m.myfile)
