 string x = "This is string";

 //do something, function or... i don't know...
 //result

 cout << string[0] << string[1] << string[2] << endl;

 //cout << "This" << "is" << "string" << endl;

You can tokenize a string into a container of strings like this:

string data = "quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog";
stringstream input(data);
vector<string> res;
copy(
    istream_iterator<string>(input)
,   istream_iterator<string>()
,   back_inserter(res));

demo.

For this use std:string:substr like this

string = "This is string";
string2 = string.substr(8,6) //string2 now equals "string"

the 8 refers to the position of the first character

the 6 refers to number of characters from that point

ensure you have #include <string> in your declerations
