how to display a number in a messagebox?

How do I display the integer in pt.x in a message box?
I get a error on parameter 2 of MessageBox call:

char str[255];
sprintf(str,"point x is %d",pt.x);
MessageBox(NULL,str,NULL,MB_OK);

What is the error message?

Probably:

TCHAR str[255];
_stprintf(str, _T("point x is %d"), pt.x);
MessageBox(0, str, 0, MB_OK);

If you're compiling with Unicode support MessageBox is a macro to the
Unicode MessageBoxW.

Make sure to include the correct headers (you can find them on MSDN), and
please direct further Windows questions to
comp.os.ms-windows.programmer.win32.

MessageBox(0, str, 0, MB_OK);
