Splitting the file based on two fields - Fixed length file

Hi ,
I am having a scenario where I need to split the file based on two field values. The file is a fixed length file.
ex:
Code:
AA0998703000000000000190510095350019500010005101980301      
K 0998703000000000000190510095351019500020005101480         
CC0338703368396368396190510114449019600010005101980301      
L 03387033683963683961905101144500196000200051012803        
I O553203000000000000190510120433019700010005101980301

Split based on 4th position to 4 char (9987) and 21st to 6 char(190510)

So, in the above example there will be 3 files generated.
Code:
9987_190510.txt
3387_190510.txt
5532_190510.txt

I tried with the below command,
Code:
awk '{ F=substr($0,4,4)".txt"; print $0 >> F; close(F) }' filename

But it splits only on the first set, I need to do it with the combination of both sub strings.

Please wrap all code, files, input & output/errors in CODE tags.
It makes it easier to read and preserves white space which is important for indenting or fixed-width data.

Locale::Codes::LangFam(3pm)				 Perl Programmers Reference Guide			       Locale::Codes::LangFam(3pm)

NAME
Locale::Codes::LangFam - standard codes for language extension identification SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Codes::LangFam; $lext = code2langfam('apa'); # $lext gets 'Apache languages' $code = langfam2code('Apache languages'); # $code gets 'apa' @codes = all_langfam_codes(); @names = all_langfam_names(); DESCRIPTION
The "Locale::Codes::LangFam" module provides access to standard codes used for identifying language families, such as those as defined in ISO 639-5. Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 639-5 language family codes will be used. SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying language families. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a constant that is automatically exported by this module. For example, the two are equivalent: $lext = code2langfam('apa','alpha'); $lext = code2langfam('apa',LOCALE_LANGFAM_ALPHA); The codesets currently supported are: alpha This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) codes from ISO 639-5 such as 'apa' for Apache languages. This is the default code set. ROUTINES
