DrawText draws a literal string fine, won't draw a string variable

The code

    DrawText/W = Graph0 xpos, ypos, "ABC";

draws the string "ABC" as expected. But if "text" is a string variable containing "ABC", nothing is drawn using

    DrawText/W = Graph0 xpos, ypos, text

I did write a small test experiment in which DrawText worked fine with a string variable, but it doesn't work in my actual experiment, whose overall code is more complicated. Nonetheless, it seems like DrawText should work with string variables no matter what the rest of the code is doing.

[BTW, the "HTML for Users" text format for posting is not working for me. There is no text box for typing any text.]

Since replies are currently not working, I'm replying by editing amtravco's posting:

Please send an example experiment to support@wavemetrics.com that demonstrates the problem you are having.

DrawText does work with string variables, so something in the experiment isn't right. But we can figure that out if we have your experiment.

Remember to adopt any non-WaveMetrics procedures before sending the experiment. Run this command to open the help topic describing how that's done:
