You may search for the ' ' token, for instance (plain C)

char string[] = "name tom";
char * p;
p = strtok(string, " "); // p points to "name"
p = strtok(NULL, " "); // p points to "tom"

What is the type of your string ? std::string, CString (MFC) or a plain char* (or TCHAR* or wchar*) ? For the last one, take a look at strtok[^] (and choose the correct version depending on your UNICODE settings).

If you are using of MFC you can use of CString::Mid or CString::Find and then CString::Right.
