This sounds more like a sed problem than an sprintf problem.

First, can you get the sed command to work at the cygwin prompt?  If
not, it's quite possible that the environment from which your running
the program does not have sed in its' path.

You should also try this:=20

`echo "yada" | sed 's/:/-/g'`

The best solution would be to convert the ':' chars to '-' chars in your
C program.

No trees were killed in the sending of this message. However,
a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.
