Default Converting selected section of text to numbers

Could someone please help me to extract some details from "1/10/2004
through 31/01/2005", which has been pasted into one cell.
I need a formula to extract the month, 10 and another formula to extract the
number 01
I then need to convert those calendar months to fiscal units (or fiscal
months), so 10 becomes 4 and 01 becomes 7.
Please note that these dates change and may not always have the same number
of characters. ie 1/10/2004 could be 11/10/2004, etc.
I need to be able to then do a calculation on those 2 fiscal units (eg
7-4=3).
I hope that's clear.

Rob
