Trim(Part($value,8,";")),
Trim(Part($value,9,";")),
Trim(Part($value,10,";")),
Trim(Part($value,11,";")),
Trim(Part($value,12,";")),
Trim(Part($value,13,";")),
Trim(Part($value,14,";")),
Trim(Part($value,15,";")),
Trim(Part($value,16,";")),
Trim(Part($value,17,";")),
Trim(Part($value,18,";")),
Trim(Part($value,19,";")),
Trim(Part($value,20,";"))
