Igor,

Are you looking for the CString methods: GetBuffer & ReleaseBuffer?

I'm looking for any method that can to receive a CString object as parametr
and
return a pointer of BYTE* type to the character string that are contained
into the
CString object.

As I said, have a look at GetBuffer & ReleaseBuffer.

Are you sure?

You wanted a BYTE * (I presumed you wanted a buffer you could change).
Note that GetString returns a const pointer, and the documentation
says:

"The returned PCXSTR pointer is const and does not allow direct
modification of CSimpleStringT contents"
