It worked though, and that's what the programmers here suggested I use. They are "big iron" guys, so less sensitive to the costs. Also, given that I had plenty of code space and cycles, the use of sprintf was "good enough", in that it allowed me to demonstrate the system, and show live data from my sensors.
Dropping the data into the array is unarguably more efficient, and I shall use that approach in the future. I will admit to being ignorant in C, but I'm not stupid. :)
