I looked back at your original post. You say something about from, to and length. What field(s) are you referring to here?

Post some sample data and what *_exactly_* you want done with it, and why. Analytical functions *_may_* be of use here, but since I don't yet fully understand what you're requesting, I cannot answer.

When asking database related questions, please give other posters 
some clues, like operating system, version of db being used and DDL.
The exact text and/or number of error messages is useful (!= "it didn't work!").
Thanks.
