These functions are usually a family.
printf goes to stdout variable param list
fprintf goes to FILE variable param list
sprintf goes to C string variable param list

vsprintf uses a va_list parameter which is a parameter list array.

Have a look if there is a vsscanf which is callable by Delphi if you 
write a glue function. Usually these functions are located in the C 
runtime lib though.
