If it were me, I'd use sprintf() or one of its variants (_snprintf, say).

char display[30];
_snprintf( display, sizeof(display), "%.2f", empMoney );

And forget about scaleing it manually.

In C/C++, another valuable use of pointers is to point to an array of charactors. C doesn't have a string type, and instead you can use an array of char like this:

char name[20];

but to do any...

Ya, you need a

current_ptr = current_ptr->next;

in there...

GetWindowText, THEN do your calculation, THEN SetWindowText. Your calculation is not operating on anything.

GetWindowText(z); // get the result from the source box
<do math with z>...
