Use CStringT::Find method[^].
(There's even an example!).

C++

if (_mystrings.Find("Babu") >= 0)
{
  //found
}
else
{
  //not found
}

C#

int Find( TCHAR ch ) const;

int Find( LPCTSTR lpszSub ) const;

int Find( TCHAR ch, int nStart ) const;

int Find( LPCTSTR pstr, int nStart ) const;

C#

CString str("abcdef");
if ( str.Find("def") != -1)
{
    printf("found");
}
else
{
    printf("not found");
}

C++
