Splitting non-delimited string

Hello,

I have an id that is half numeric and half text.  I need to split it into
two ids--one numeric, and one text.  The id can be any length, and has no
delimiters.

From:
<AgencyReportNumber>123ABC</AgencyReportNumber>

To:
<AGENCY-RPT-NO>
<NUMBER-PORTION>123</NUMBER-PORTION>
<TEXT-PORTION>ABC</TEXT-PORTION>
</AGENCY-RPT-NO>

Substring doesn't seem appropriate since there is no delimiter and no set
number of characters.  My other thought is to somehow use number
recursively--could this work?  Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Allison Denny
