I guess this would depend on the compiler and library implementation of 
sprintf.  Generally, the token '%d' expects a pointer to a signed integer.  
Based on your comments and output snippet, your compiler may use 16-bit 
integers.  If this is the case, use "%ld" instead of "%d" to tell the sprintf 
routine you are passing a pointer to a long integer instead.
