Run-Time Check Failure #2 help

[lazysam]

for some reason my variable 'character' is causing this message to pop up.

- Run-Time Check Failure #2 - Stack around the variable ' character ' was corrupted.

here is the code.


#include "stdio.h"
#include "stdafx.h"
#include "stdlib.h"
#define LINE "_____________________"
#define TITLE "KEYBOARD"
#define AUTHOR "GROUP NINE"


int main()


{
char character= ' ';


printf("\n \t %s \n \t %s \n", LINE, TITLE); /* PROGRAMME HEADER */
printf("\t by %s \n \t %s \n\n", AUTHOR, LINE); /* PROGRAMME HEADER */

printf("Welcome toProgramme Beta\n\n");
printf("Enter any one keyboard character: ");
scanf_s( "%C", &character);


Please can someone help me correct this.

Thank You.

scanf_s( "%C", &character);

Format specifiers are case sensitive, that should be %c, not %C.
