    Help

    I'm trying to get a number from an edit box and multiply it but it, but some numbers when multiplyed return letters, so far what people have suggested doesn't work so heres what i have tryied and the code thats returning the letters.

    char buffer[25];
    GetWindowText(ebox,buffer,25);
    int temp = atoi(buffer) * 2;
    itoa(temp,buffer,25);
    sprintf("%d",buffer);
    SetWindowText(ebox,buffer);

    how about you use a better subject title than "help" and use code tags when you post?!

    Code:
    char buffer[32];
    GetWindowText(hWnd, buffer, sizeof(buffer));
    int num = atoi(buffer) * 2;
    _snprintf(buffer, sizeof(buffer), "%d", num);
    SetWindowText(hWnd, buffer);
