If your control’s associated CListCtrl is called m_listCtrl simply use:

CString colText = m_listCtrl.GetItemText(item, subitem);

You associate that variable with the control itself via something like this:

void CMyDlg::DoDataExchange(CDataExchange* pDX)
{
    CDialog::DoDataExchange(pDX);
    DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_LIST1, m_listCtrl);
}
