How to extract a string from the statement

[MindCracker]

if i have a string as:

"Time Decimal(3)"
"Cat Integer "

I want the program each time to extract the second word of the statements. In this case is "Decimal" or "Integer" depending which line has been selected. How am I supposed to do that?

Please help. Many thanks!

Try with this function

Works as follows:
CString sResult=GetSecondString("hello world"
(in this case sResult="world&quot

//THE CODE:
CString& GetSecondString(CString& Data)
{
bool bFound=false;
CString sTempData="";
for(int i=0;i<Data.GetLenght();i++)
{
if(Data.mid(i,1)==&quot; &quot
{
if(bFound)
break;
else
bFound=true;
}
else
{
if(bFound)
sTempData+=Data.mid(i,1);
}
return sTempData;
}

HOPE TO HELP YOU!!

going back to standard C++, you can use the strtok() or strsep() routines. If you don't have the MSDN Library,
look at

http://www.gnu.org/manual/glibc-2.0.6/html_chapter/libc_5.html#SEC65

for an example.
This work on standard null-terminated C-style strings (char *), so if you're using CString, you will need to make a copy of the data first into a modifyable string.
