Answer 1

If you are looking for the particular "full string", where it ends when there is simply the space, you can just use .find() again: string = str('Halo Device ANumber : 6232123123 Customer ID : 16926') target = '62' ind = string.find(target) ind_end = string.find(' ', ind + len(target)) word = string[ind:ind_end] If you wanted something more robust, we can use regex: string = str('Halo Device ANumber : 6232123123 Customer ID : 16926') word = re.findall('(62\d+)', string).groups()[0] This will take a first match from your string which starts from "62" and captures all the remaining numerical digits.
