Why do you use Find, instead of (suggested) ReverseFind?

Use ReverseFind() instead of Find().

CString DirPath;
CString FullPath = _T("C:\\abc\\cd\\as.txt");
int nPos = FullPath.ReverseFind( _T('\\') );
if( nPos >= 0 )
{
DirPath = FullPath.Mid( 0, nPos);
}
AfxMessageBox(DirPath);

Which will hold strings like:

array[0] = "This is string 1";

array[2] = "This is string 3";
...
array[9] = "This is string 10";

Is that really what you intended?

hi all,

I am getting error C2061: syntax error : identifier 'string' at this code

//helper.h
std::string LoadInstaller(__in UINT nID, string tcItemText);
std::string LoadProduct(__in UINT nID);

//helper.cpp

std::string LoadInstaller(UINT nID , string tcItemText)
{

	string InstallerKey; 

	InstallerKey = "";
	StrTable.LoadStringA(IDS_ServiceRegEntry);
	InstallerKey.append(StrTable.GetString());

	return ProductKey;
}

I have already included <string>, i dont know what seems to be the problem. Any Advice?

Thanks,

You have forgotten the namespace std::string.

He probably has, but omitting the std namespace should have produced a C2065 error.
