This code below works great, but how bout if you wanted the second set of 4 numbers from the left.
i.e. Lets say someone provides an agent number of ' 123456789123' and it needs to be split into 3 parts with 4 charcters each: Master=1234 Region=5678 Agent=9123 Because there is a signup process where a 12 digit number needs to be broken down into 3 pieces.
