DrawText with integer value

[daitheflu]

Hi,

I am tring to draw text to the window to show the current year in a simulation.

int iyear;

CRect crect(10,250,150,300);
CString string = "Year : ";

pDC->DrawText(string,crect, DT_LEFT);

I would like to display the value of iyear after "Year: " either by adding it onto 'string' or by some other way.

thanks.

int iyear = 2005;
CRect crect(10,250,150,300);
CString string;
string.Format("Year : %d", iyear);

pDC->DrawText(string,crect, DT_LEFT);

Hi,

I have just tried it with a population value that rises and falls. The trouble is if the population is above 100 so 3 figures. If it then falls bellow 100 down to 2 figure the 3rd figure is still displayed.

so if value is 101 then drops to 91 it is displaying 911.

Is there a way around this problem?
