extracting codes from a lot number

DKI

Hi 

 

I have a series of lot number in a column and the 5 alpha numeric digits need to be extracted into one column, digits 6-8 need to be extracted to another,  digits 9-12 to another column (as per example below). I am hoping there may be a jsl code that could complete this task. I am new to jsl so any help is appreciated.

 

Example

 

Input Columns: 

Lot number

H974286234825

 

Output Columns:

Col 1                 Col 2           Col 3

H97428             623              4825

Use the Substr() function,

I have included a data table with the 3 new columns you want, using a formula for each of the new columns to get the data you want
