Once again, quotes in strings

Hi,

I have a simple problem. I need to output a string from a js script to a message box. There is whitespaces within the string, so Max add double quotes at the start and the end of the string. But I need the string without the quotes to send it to an external object (MaxMBROLA) who takes only messages. I tried [fromsymbol] to strip the quotes and it worked, but when after that the string stripped is sent to the external object, Max shut down !!??

Is there any other solution to try ?

Thanks a lot,

Christophe.
