    % sign

    sprintf(Percentage, "Completed - %5.2f %",(Value/Max)*100);

    How do I get the second % sign to go into my string?

    Not sure, but I guess you should use the escape character (\)

    So that would be

    Code:
     sprintf(Percentage, "Completed - %5.2f \%",(Value/Max)*100);

    % is _vsnprintf specific so try %%. (it's not escaped by the compiler)
