I was wondering if anyone knew a good resource guide for C/C++. I have a book but it is more of a teaching book. One example of what I'm looking for is when I use sprintf, I would like to see what all the specifiers are (ie: 0, -, ., u). When I search online, I get a couple websites that give a couple of them. Even when I use MS and Borland help files, they are not that complete. I am convinced there is a website out there that is a fairly complete resource guide.

What you're referring to is a C++ reference guide. Try MSDN , whily not specifically c++ reference it has every c++ function described.

For C++ this has helped me a lot. C++ FAQ LITE

As far as instructional books go I would suggest Bjarne's book for C++ since he's the creator. For a reference book I use"C/C++ Programmer's Reference" by Herbert Schildt.

It doesn't provide a lot of detail though. I'd like to find one that goes into a little more detail but I'm still looking.
