Sms length error

[uugan]

Sending ascii sms text like below (text length < 160)
SmsSubmitPdu pdu;
byte dcs = (byte)DataCodingScheme.NoClass_7Bit;
pdu = new SmsSubmitPdu(sms, phoneno, smsc, dcs);
comm.SendMessage(pdu);

but it gives error like "Text is too long. A maximum of 160 resulting septets is allowed. The current input result in 243 septets." How to avoid that error?

Try creating multiple pdus.

`OutgoingSmsPdu[] pdus = null;
pdus = SmartMessageFactory.CreateConcatTextMessage(message, number);
int num = pdus.Length;

try
{
// Send the created messages
int i=0;
foreach(OutgoingSmsPdu pdu in pdus)
{
i++;
Output("Sending message " + i.ToString() + " of " + num.ToString() + "...");
comm.SendMessage(pdu);
}
Output("Done.");
Output("");
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
ShowException(ex);
Output("Message sending aborted because of an error.");
Output("");
}`

It seems like working but sms looks like 7bit string (bunch of numbers) but not the text which i sent.

OutgoingSmsPdu[] pdus = null;
              pdus = SmartMessageFactory.CreateConcatTextMessage(sms, phoneno);
              int num = pdus.Length;
              try
              {
                  // Send the created messages
                  int i = 0;
                  foreach (OutgoingSmsPdu pdu in pdus)
                  {
                      
                     Console.WriteLine("Sending message " + (++i) + " of " + num.ToString() + "...");
                     pdu.DataCodingScheme = (byte)DataCodingScheme.NoClass_7Bit;
                     comm.SendMessage(pdu);
                  }
                  Console.WriteLine("Done.");
                  Console.WriteLine("");
              }
              catch (Exception ex)
              {
                  MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
                  Console.WriteLine("Message sending aborted because of an error.");
                  Console.WriteLine("");
              }
