...but I don't know how to orgnize the bubble sort algorithm in order to compare strings and swap them.

int nNumbers[] = { 1, 7, 4, 10, 3, 5, 6, 9 };
int nCount = sizeof(nNumbers) / sizeof(nNumbers[0]);
...
BubbleSort(nNumbers, nCount);

1. You can't get an integer from a string by casting - use atol (that's like atof for integers)
2. You only pass the string pointer the first time you call strtok for a string. The other times, pass a null pointer

1. Replace the 'int' in the nl and nd casts by 'atol'
2. A null pointer is zero. Replace the 'string' argument in all except the first strtok call. Look at the strtok documentation[^]

OK, my problem is about libraries and their use in windows

With regard to The CodeProject link seems not to be usable in all VRML files

Still not terribly specific...are you having trouble building your software because of some third party library?

How about this one[^]? It claims to have a complete VRML parser (doesn't mean it displays all of VRML, I'll grant).
