I have a list of strings like this: 060001_000 060001_001 060001_002 060001_003 060001_004 070002_000 070002_001 070002_002 070002_003 070002_004
The position and value of the digits are significant. The first two digits give me a channel, i.e. 06=channel 1, 07= channel 2, etc. The sixth digit gives me the day of the week, i.e. 1=Monday, 2=Saturday, 4=Thursday, etc. The last two digits give me a time reference, i.e. 01=00:00:00, 02=00:30:00, 10=03:00:00, 11=03:30:00, etc. I pretty much know what to do with the value once I get it, but I can't figure out how to extract the digit by position. I have over 6,000 numbers in this list to pull data from and fill in a form. I can fill in the form just fine with $strings. I just have to get the right values in the $string. It will take several monotonous weeks putting all this in by hand.
