Display an int variable in a MessageBox

Viewed 32906

I am working on an old app written in Visual C++ 6.0. I am trying to display an int variable in a MessageBox for debugging reasons. Here is my code, I thought this would be a simple process, but I am just learning C++. The two lines that are commented I have tried as well with similar errors. Below is the error I am getting.

int index1 = 1;
char test1 = index1;
// char var1[] = index1;
// char *varGo1 = index1;
MessageBox(NULL, test1, "testx", MB_OK);

error C2664: 'MessageBoxA' : cannot convert parameter 2 from 'char' to 'const char *'
