Topic: STL strings and formatting

I'd like to use STL strings for everything, but I can't find a way of
producing formatted strings without resorting to sprintf and a char
buffer (which rather defeats the object of encapsolating the memory
management functionality). Surely there must be an equivalent to the MFC
CString.Format() method?
Cheers,

Yes,
#include <sstream> // ostringstream and istringstream
