Mapping of sub-strings in a string variable ?

[Jacques Nilo]

Here is my problem: let's assume that I have three string variables corresponding to three parts of a larger one, in my case a LINE STRING*16 of a typical 2x16 LCD screen
Is there a way to assign pre-defined location for my three string variables in that line. Here is the picture :-)

       1234567890123456  <- DIM LINE AS STRING*16
 Line  AAAAA   BB  CCCC  <- DIM AAAAA AS STRING*5/DIM BB AS STRING*2/DIM CCCC AS STRING*4

With AAAAA starting a location 1, BB location 9 and CCCC location 13 ?
Thanks !
Jacques
