Me not knowing windows, are you sure this should be "c:\tc\cdev" and 
not "c:/tc/cdev"?  Can you for example cd to c:\tc\cdev ?

If the latter is the case, then

  grep -r --include='*.c*' 'dat' .

should work.  If it doesn't, report this to Cygwin.  It works on 
Linux, searching only files that have ".c" in their names.
