Correct! I see I have first to put empty into an extra variable

"put "" into idata2"

and then use

"put numtochar (tC) after idata2"

instead of

"put numtochar(tC) into char counter of idata".

This improves the execution speed from 1360 to 1221 milliseconds with 
the imagesize in my stack.

Thanks!
