CString::Tokenize

 // Example with CAtlString from MSDN
CAtlString str( "%First Second#Third" );
CAtlString resToken;
int curPos= 0;

resToken= str.Tokenize("% #",curPos);
while (resToken != "")
{
   printf("Resulting token: %s\n", resToken);
   resToken= str.Tokenize("% #",curPos);
};

By the way don't you have MSDN installed?:confused:

If you're not using a string class, there's always _tcstok()

or sscanf() ... He did say the string always had the exact same format ...
