Doing a double cast like that is not the proper way. Ever heard of CString::GetBuffer()?

char buffer_1[ ] = "c:\\Test\\sample.txt"; 
	char *lpStr1;
	lpStr1 = buffer_1;

	CString string = _T(lpStr1);
	int nLen = string.GetLength();
	LPCSTR lpszBuf = string.GetBuffer(nLen);
	
	string.ReleaseBuffer();

	
	LPCSTR pF=lpszBuf;

char buffer_1[ ] = "c:\\Test\\sample.txt"; 
	char *lpStr1;
	lpStr1 = buffer_1;

	PathRemoveFileSpec(lpStr1);

	CString string = _T(lpStr1);
	int nLen = string.GetLength();

	LPCSTR lpszBuf = string.GetBuffer(nLen);

	
	string.ReleaseBuffer();

That is relative, for read-only purposes, my proposal will be simpler.

LPCSTR lpszBuf 

char buffer_1[ ] = "c:\\Test\\sample.txt"; 
	char *lpStr1;
	lpStr1 = buffer_1;

	PathRemoveFileSpec(lpStr1);

	CString string = _T(lpStr1);
	int nLen = string.GetLength();

	LPCSTR lpszBuf = string.GetBuffer(nLen);

	string.ReleaseBuffer();
	
	LPCSTR pF=lpszBuf;
	
	//LPCSTR pF="c:\\Test";
		
	LPCSTR pT="c:\\Test2";
			
	SHFILEOPSTRUCT sf;
    memset(&sf,0,sizeof(sf));
    sf.hwnd = 0;
    sf.wFunc = FO_COPY;
    sf.pFrom = pF;
    sf.pTo = pT;
	sf.fFlags = FOF_NOCONFIRMATION | FOF_NOCONFIRMMKDIR | FOF_NOERRORUI;
 
    int n = SHFileOperation(&sf);
    if( n == 0)
    {
       AfxMessageBox("Success\n");
    }
    else
    {
        AfxMessageBox("Failed\n");
    }
