My suspicion is that getItem includes a '0' (string terminator in C) at the
end of the string, so when you pass the concatonated string using setText,
it looks something like this:

    { ... 0, 't', 'i', 'm', 'e', 's' }

The zero prevents the rest of the string from being seen. You can test it by
changing the code to:

    setText(Label1, this[1..length(this)-1] & "times ")

I'll try to check it out myself when I'm not trying to put a hyperactive
two-year old to bed.
