Have you tried something already and stuck in a certain spot? If so, can you provide your code where you are stuck?

Is there any specific logic behind converting the string or just ntext(1212121212) to text means you can simply do substring.

Install Expresso and play around with regexes, it's not that hard to learn.
Soon it will be quicker for you to write your own regex than to post a question here

I agree. I always let intern programmars know that regular expressions are like a secret society. Those that truly understand them will have super powers.
