Caller ID Numeric components, of a mixed line containing firstly a 3 digit
number, that's ok as this is constant, then a couple of words that I need to
isolate, , then sometimes, not always though, a bunch of numbers as a Caller

or character 0 if you queery it, between these 3 separate components as
