Assuming you're using bash, see -
String Length:
Parameter expansion [Bash Hackers Wiki]
and directly beneath,
Substring expansion:
Parameter expansion [Bash Hackers Wiki]
(NB: it appears formatting may have eaten some of your characters; from my count "ABC_BMWPPI_20120909_00073.DAT.ASDFGHJK" is only 38 chars long, so it's hard to reconcile this with the exact output you're getting since the numbers are off - the basic idea/concept is the same)
