No, the answer is to not double-format, as it generally implies massive security bugs.

Don't want great new post so type my question here..

Format(sText, sizeof(sText), "%c%c%c%s", 1, 11, 1, sText);

What means %c format prm 1 and 11?

Tnx

1 and 11 are just numbers, or in this case, numbers that represent ASCII characters. %c is a character format specifier, which means that it prints just a single character.
Here's a little reference/guide to format specifiers: http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/cstdio/printf/
