AfxFormatString2
Substitutes the string pointed to by lpsz1 for any instances of the characters "%1", and the string pointed to by lpsz2 for any instances of the characters "%2", in the template string resource identified by nIDS.
Syntax
void AfxFormatString2(
CString& rString,
UINT nIDS,
LPCTSTR lpsz1,
LPCTSTR lpsz2
);
Parameters
rString
A reference to the CString that will contain the resultant string after the substitution is performed.nIDS
The string table ID of the template string on which the substitution will be performed.lpsz1
A string that will replace the format characters "%1" in the template string.lpsz2
A string that will replace the format characters "%2" in the template string.
Remarks
The newly formed string is stored in rString. For example, if the string in the string table is "File %1 not found in directory %2", lpsz1 points to "MYFILE.TXT", and lpsz2 points to "C:\MYDIR", then rString will contain the string "File MYFILE.TXT not found in directory C:\MYDIR"
If the format characters "%1" or "%2" appear in the string more than once, multiple substitutions will be made. They do not have to be in numerical order.
Example
void DisplayFileNotFoundMessage(LPCTSTR pszFileName, LPCTSTR pszDirectory)
{
CString strMessage;
// The IDS_FILENOTFOUND string resource contains "Error: File %1 not
// found in directory %2"
AfxFormatString2(strMessage, IDS_FILENOTFOUND2, pszFileName, pszDirectory);
// In the previous call, substitute the actual file and directory
// names into the message string
AfxMessageBox(strMessage); // Display the error message
}
