Well, since you are using a an instance of the CFileFind class - 'find', you can msdn CFileName for an explanation of it's member functions. One of these will surely return the name of the current file. - it does! GetFileName(), of all things.. It's a CString that is returned.

You may choose to use a vector of CStrings to hold the list of matching filenames.
i.e
vector<cstring> matchingFiles;
found = find.FindNextFile();
// When you get a CString of the cur filename matching *.txt*, save it
matchingFiles.push_back(found.GetFileName());

That's an answer, not a comment. Promote it

How can you possibly be using some members of the CFileFind Class (FindFile(), FindNextFile()) without knowing / looking up the other class members? Is this code something you just cut / pasted from the web somewhere? Double-Click on CFileFind (to highlight it) and hit "F1". Read the displayed documentation.

And yeah, what Chuck said.
