Rex command for extracting data from a variable

Marco

Good Morning,

I am currently trying to extract a field from  a variable.

The variable name is command, and the value the command holds is 

Command = "CONNECT SPLNKUSER GROUP(QA)"

What I'm trying to do is extract the QA part and create a new variable called group.

For example:

Group = QA

Group= Accounting

Group = Payroll

 

Thank you,

Marco
