Yes, this directive is hard to find but it is there: MPASM help -> Macro
Language -> Text Substitution. I've actually been using the #v directive for
years now when defining text strings. For example:

Text#v(number)
        data    string

where the label becomes Text1 or whatever. Just by increasing number you can
create many uniquely labelled strings. But i never thought of using #v to
generate messages - Dwayne Reid was cluey enough to bring that my attention.

#v is such a useful directive and it's obscurity shows just how much
microchip have rushed the entire IDE and docs.
