VB programmer needs help

Anonymous — Wed, 22 May 2002 07:39:04 GMT

hello I am working through McAuley's ARX book and I need some help
the following code compiles but it does not give me what I want.

char partnum[80];
int rc = acedGetString(0, "Enter part Number:", partnum);
char *teststr = ("Hello, you entered '%s'", partnum);
MessageBox (NULL, teststr , TEXT ("HelloMsg"), 0) ;

If you entered 1234 for the partnum, I am trying to get the message box to
print
"Hello you entered 1234"

when the code runs I get a message box that just contains '1234'

my text is gone.

In VB I could concatinate strings. How do I do it?

thank you for your time and have a good day
