You cannot use ProcessTemplateFromData from a UDT (because it's a module method). 
I think you need to use the global $gCms->smarty object (and it's display method) directly.

I'm no Smarty expert by far, but I think to use data instead of a file as template, you'd need to define your own resource plugin functions and register them with Smarty.

Thank you for answering.
For now, I'll been accessing ProcessTemplateFromData() indirectly, by using a module declaration. I was hoping something more efficient. Seems to me, I'm the first or pushing the envelop of CMSMS can do. Anyway, I've re-written my UDT with another logic, starting over with the basics taken from other tags (plugins).
Thank you again.

The best way to use processtemplatefromdata in a udt would be to copy and paste and modify the function source forom modulesuuport
