Strings in C

[Wynd]

I am trying to make my .exe file as small as possible and someone suggested using C instead of C++. In one part of my program I need to get input from the keyboard and use it in a Windows API function (FindWindow()). How acn I accomplish the same thing in C? I attached what I have so far.

Use printf() and scanf().

#include <windows.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
LPSTR sName;

printf("Type in the name of the window you wish to show or hide:");
scanf("%s", sName);

HWND h = FindWindow(NULL, sName);
if (h == NULL)
MessageBox(NULL, "Could not find window", "Error", MB_OK | MB_ICONERROR);
else
{
if(!IsWindowVisible(h))
ShowWindow(h, 1);
else
ShowWindow(h, 0);
}
return 0;
}

If I use that the program crashes after I enter the window name.

LPSTR sName;char sName[254];:)

That doesn't work either, it says "Could not find window" if there are more than one word...
