[PD] spaces in messages to symbol object?

Hi.

I am having a bit of trouble with the following..

the symbol object doesn't seem to like any spaces in a message that it is
sent.. It just symbolised the text up until the first space.

This is a problem because when using $1 to create a dyamic message you HAVE
to have a space in the message!

i.e.

[12](numberbox)->[mynewcolor= $1](message) -> [symbol]

does anyone know how to get around this? (and in a way that is kind of user
friendly?)
is it possible to have a message using $1 without a space? i.e. mynewcolor$1
(i know this can be done with creation arguments, for a unique arrayname
e.t.c.)

Thanks for any help
Tom
