There's a standard C library function 'sprintf', which will do what you're suggesting. The parameters are the same as in 'printf', except that before the format string you'll have to put the address of the target buffer. Normally, the target buffer is declared as an array of characters, but to send the output to any memory location, you can use a literal with a type cast to (char *) .
