I want to get in variables some part of TGT. like this.

These three variables have fixe position in variable TGT.

Can you help me with shell expression to get these three variables(TGT1,TGT2,TGT3) from TGT ?

#! /bin/bash

TGT=T2DIRUPDAZ20070326VA;
TG1=${TGT:5:4};
TG2=${TGT:10:8};
TG3=${TGT:18};
echo $TG1 $TG2 $TG3;

Possible way with awk:

$> TGT=T2DIRUPDAZ20070326VA
$> TGT1=`echo $TGT| awk '{print(substr($0,6,4))}'`
$> echo $TGT1
UPDA

The 2 other should be no problem now.
