There are a lot of ways. I do not know why you posted this problem in the
native api group. But using the VCL this would demonstrate how you could
do it:

void __fastcall TForm1::Button3Click(TObject *Sender)
{
   AnsiString TabbedLine = "aaaa\tbb\tcccc\tdddddddd\teeee";

   TStringList *StringList = new TStringList;

   StringList->CommaText = TabbedLine;

   int linenr = -1;

   while ( ++linenr < StringList->Count )
      ShowMessage ( StringList->Strings[linenr] );

   delete StringList;
}

Hans.
