Message <Context> this argument to <function name> is of "<type name>" type and is not appropriate for the conversion specifier "<incorrect conversion>". The value may overwrite other data or produce unexpected results. Description The compiler has detected an input conversion specifier that does not match its corresponding argument. The corresponding argument may not be a pointer or may point to data that is wider or narrower than that specified by the conversion specifier. This might not have been what you intended. User Action Modify either the argument or the conversion specifier so that they match.
