What I was hinting at is the declared size. The +2 is not the best practice for finding the data portion of STRING since IBM gave us:
%ADDR(varying-length variable : *DATA)

>Attached is the XML document after I wrote the input XMLSTRING to a data file, and then did a CVTTOPCD to the XML file. Below is a screen shot of STMTIN.XML, showing the 'SUB'.  When I remove it, the error message is removed, and the file is valid.

Well, there you probably found your problem. When I saved it on my system, the hex editor I used revealed

3C 2F 50 4F 53 3E 0D 0A 1A
<  /  P  O  S  >  .  .  .

The extra characters are CR, LF, SUB.

They shouldn't be there. If I interpreted correctly, you are saving a file on the IFS, modifying it, copying it using CVTTOPCD (home grown command?), reading that file into STRING and then using that to send the data? Something in that string is appending the rogue data. Chop it off and maybe you are good to go? As a test maybe something like this?

StrLen = %Len(String) - 3;
