In my PCAS, I use only aitEnumFixedString (and make sure I allocate enough
room even if I don't need it) which works fine.  Luckily, most strings in 
my application are 40 chars or less - the few oddball strings that are more, 
I convert to unsigned byte arrays and let clients deal with them special 
if they care (nobody's tried to connect to these few channels so nobody's 
complained).

I'll be interested to know if you get aitEnumString to work.  Thanks,
