Hi,

I want to manipulate an incoming WORD as I receive byte by byte. let say 07
D4, which is 2004
I want to combine these two bytes and convert into decimal, then convert as
a string. (sprintf)

int MSB;
int LSB;
int Total;
char buf[5];

MSB = (0x07 << 8)
LSB= (0xD4 & 0x00FF)
Total = MSB | LSB
sprintf(buf, "%d",Total);

When I print buf in %s format, the output I expected is 2004. But it prints
"-long printf)d"
What is wrong in my code above ?

Thanks.
