Converting a string to a double

[Richard Andrew x64]

I need to convert a CString to a double, but the function

swscanf_s

only operates on float's. What should I use to convert to a double?

The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.

You can use the wide char versions of atof()[^] or strtod()[^]. If the string does not begin with the numeric value (spaces are ignored), you must parse the string and pass a pointer to the value's offset.
