Subject: Slightly OT: Visual C++ 2005 Express Questions

Hi

I thought I would download the new : Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition beta to
have a tinker with. It is proving trickier than expected to get my chess program
to compile and run. Any help and tips would be appreciated please

Q1
This is not a stopper but would like an explanation

warning C4996: 'sprintf' was declared deprecated
        D:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\include\stdio.h(285) : see
declaration of 'sprintf'

I am getting this deprecated warning on lots of standard C function calls ? How
can a standard C function be possibly not supported in the future ?
Unless I am misunderstanding the meaning of deprecated ?

Q2
After having got it to build with some warnings but no errors I hit F5 to run
but it comes up with the following error
"The application failed to start because the Application configuration is
incorrect. Reinstalling the Application may fix this problem ?"

Is it telling me to install my program again, surely it is not telling me to
reinstall Visual Studio again ? It doesnt give me any furher clues as to what
the configuration problem might be. I did wonder if having an older version of
VS on this PC might be screwing it up in some way ?

Thanks for any ideas

        Regards Geoff
