The solution can be fit to your requirement. you can off course adjust/re-use it to match with.

If you are sure the last character would always be a digit and want to pass sequentially,
Code:
$ a=T3,B2
$ echo $a | sed 's/.*\([0-9]\),.*\([0-9]\)/\1 \2/'
3 2
$

You can later use it this way

Code:
$ set -- $(echo $a | sed 's/.*\([0-9]\),.*\([0-9]\)/\1 \2/')
$ EventRun -r $1 -p $2
 
# would actually result
$ EventRun -r 3 -p 2


Thanks for the Solution :-)
I hope it works..will check it now ..ty again
