    valueText is a VTEXT field?

    templateBodyC is really a zero terminated string?

Then yes this is correct. Why you wonder that it works for long string?
VText do not have limited. Well 2Gb limit.


P.S. You do confusing thing that name filed as valueText.
    I'd name it as mfValueText.
    to underline that this is a Vfield
