I am just guessing but maybe you aren't using it right.  As far as I
know, the syntax is: sscanf("%d", &variable); 
Of course a lof of that changes depening on what you are looking for. 
Like the %d will find an int, but to find like an "double float"(or is
it float double :) it would be like %lf  I can't really help much
because I have never used sscanf before.  I have used scanf (with one s)
tho.
