and if the string does not contain any comma OR less than 4 commas, then the query should come back with nulls.
see below wbp98 in 1st row after 4th comma and needs to translate to uppercase
x1vqm-2nd row after 4th comma needs to translate to uppercase
VLHHV-3rd row after 4th comma needs to translate to uppercase
ex rows in a colomn

Chinna,
Something like this could be used in this case:
SELECT UPPER(PTL_STR) FROM
(SELECT SUBSTR(PTL_STR,POSITION(',' IN PTL_STR) +1,5) FROM
(SELECT SUBSTR(PTL_STR,POSITION(',' IN PTL_STR) +1, 50) FROM
(SELECT SUBSTR(PTL_STR, POSITION( ',' IN PTL_STR) +1 , 50) FROM
(select
substr('P09-2001365000042108792,09262006,08022006,,wbp98,wbp98,,22,4,6,2,20,
Landscaping,2,,1,2,,3,,5,2,,2,2,2,2,2,,-1,0,1,1,,0,0,2,,,2,,,2,559464948,545804394,,,,CM-N/C'
,POSITION( ',' IN
'P09-2001365000042108792,09262006,08022006,,wbp98,wbp98,,22,4,6,2,20
,Landscaping,2,,1,2,,3,,5,2,,2,2,2,2,2,,-1,0,1,1,,0,0,2,,,2,,,2,
559464948,545804394,,,,CM-N/C') +1 )) DT (PTL_STR))DT(PTL_STR)) DT(PTL_STR))DT(PTL_STR);
