Dear Jochen,
So the command line arguments are stored as wide chars no matter I claimed "char* argv[]" or "_TCHAR* argv[]" in the argument of _tmain?
However, I think you are right, the rule of thumb is "never change any parameter types defined in MSDN"
Thanks so much!
Best Regards,

Dear Jochen,
Thanks for your help & it worked! However, I still have one question about the char* & _tchar*
My code is "int _tmain(_In_ int argc, _In_reads_(argc) char* argv[])". Even I claimed argv[] as "char*", it will still be converted to "_tchar*" because of "_tmain" function. Is that correct?
