ifString.split() can get you started:

Brightscript Debugger> ? "blah, blah, blah, blah, text=1234, blah, blah, text=1234, blah, blah, blah, blah".split("text=")
<Component: roArray> =
[
    "blah, blah, blah, blah, "
    "1234, blah, blah, "
    "1234, blah, blah, blah, blah"
]

What are you calling it with?

[belltown]

If you can guarantee that each <item> in text=<item>, is a sequence of digits, you can use this regex:

re = CreateObject ("roRegex", ".*?text=(\d+),(.*)", "s")

See below

re = CreateObject ("roRegex", ".*?text=(\d+)[^,]*,(.*)", "s")

should allow a sequence of digits then strip off anything else before the next comma.
