This seemingly very simple thing is escaping my grasp. I want to put an INT into a messagebox (windows API) which will only take char pointer. Ok, I think: "type cast" and do the following:

Code:
#include <windows.h>

int WINAPI WinMain (HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, PSTR szCmdLine, int iCmdShow) {
	int imyint;

	char chMychar;
	
	imyint = 20;

	chMychar = (char) imyint;

	MessageBox (NULL, &chMychar, "Test", MB_OK);

	return (0);
}
(NOTE: That is not my exact code. Its something very very similar I just made up at school here, the real code is at my house. I'll edit it in later if it makes a differance. Oh and the compiler im using is MinGW under WindowsXP)

Ok so I complie and execute that code, and I get the message box with some weird looking ASCII contents, instead of the the number 20.

Thank you for any help you can provide!
