Show me the code your using and i can most likely show you a solution.

When you declare your score make it a char * in the first place. Or if its of another type use the commands i provide below.

if your score variable is a int use:
dbStr(score)

if your score is a string use
(char *)score.c_str()

If you cannot get it working provide your erroring code and i will try to fix it.

best way is sprintf in my opinion:


http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/clibrary/cstdio/sprintf/
for reference

notice that if you are storing the score in a float, or anything except an integer, you should change %d to the one fits with the variable type, see the link above for a list of the %'s
