Your question makes little sense, please try and explain what you are trying to achieve.

The found index or (-1) will be returned :) :

int CYourWnd::TryToFindInBox(const CString& cszWhat)
CString cszBoxText;
GetDlgItemText(IDC_EDIT1, cszBoxText); // IDC_EDIT1 is ID of your box
return cszBoxText.Find(cszWhat);
}

In addition to what Eugen Podsypalnikov mentioned, may be you can use EM_SETSEL message to highlight the selected text. Other option would be to use a Rich Edit control and EM_FINDTEXTEX message.
