Thanks. I tested it and it works.

The reference manual is a bit confusing though:
"Ansistrings are strings that have no length limit. They are reference 
counted and null terminated."

"i.e. a variable of type PChar is a pointer that points to an array of 
type Char, which is ended by a null-character (#0). "

The above quotes does not agree with the code above, which makes 
discovering this info a bit difficult.
