is it possible to rundown a column of numbers in A
and return it in B without the 1st 4 and last 4 didtgets?

ie whether the number is 12, 13, 14, 15, ditgets long
i want the center bit - in my case - to get the breeders number
extracting the YEAR (1st 4 ditgets) and (dog number (last 4 Digets)

A B
200812340001 = 1234
2007567890001 = 56789
