It depends on whether you have defined _UNICODE in your application or not. i.e if _UNICODE is define, the CString internally keeps a wchar* itself. so you can simply copy from cstring to wchar_t[] usinf wcscpy() fucntion. If _UNICODE is not define, CString will be internally keeping a char* pointer and you have to covert this char* to wchar_t[] using MultiByteToWideChar() API.

CString -> CStringW ?

If Unicode is not defined, check out the A2W() macro. If Unicode is defined, you can simply use _tcscpy().

Sindse ATL 7.0 and MFC 7.0 You can use CStringW (or CStringA ) This code is valid for both Unicode and Multibyte:

CString cMyCString("Test");
CStringW cMyCStringW( cMyCString );
(LPCWSTR) cMyCStringW;
