You have to be able to distinguish the first part from the second part and distinguish the second part from the third part. Is there any distinguishing character or characters? If so, have a look at the String.split( ... ) method.

kind regards,

what about stringtokenizer ? which one is useful ?

Always prefer split over string tokenizer. String tokenizer is only still around for legacy code.

From the API: StringTokenizer is a legacy class that is retained for compatibility reasons although its use is discouraged in new code. It is recommended that anyone seeking this functionality use the split method of String or the java.util.regex package instead
