You have to use text streams. Strings are stored in Unicode format, so there can be 16 bit chars in a string , and this is semothing very usual in some languages (japanese, arabic, etc)
I suggest you take a look to textStreams or, if possible, use the function SaveText. This function will choose the apropiate encoding for you, depending of the contents of the string you're saving to disk.
