LOL...
When you compose a text message on the Touch Pro, you can type as many characters as you want. When you hit send it will break it into 160 character sections and send each section as a text message. It does this because of the 160 character limit set by your service provider.

This is the HTC Touch Pro forum. Those setings must be for your palm phone or some other third party software.
The proper registry entry he asked about, for the Touch Pro, is
HKEY_Current_User/Software/Microsoft/SMS/TextShared
"IS637MaxAsciiCharacters"
value should be set to 160
