I think you need to check out the documentation, Functions Manual in particular, and apply some simple logic.

Try this:
 
-SET &INPUT = 'abcd2.pqexyz(T4322)';
-SET &LN = &INPUT.LENGTH;
-SET &VAL1 = GETTOK(&INPUT,&LN, 1, '(', 20, 'A20');
-SET &VAL1A = TRUNCATE(&VAL1.EVAL);
-SET &VAL2 = GETTOK(&INPUT,&LN, -1, '(', 20, 'A20');
-SET &VAL2LN = &VAL2.LENGTH;
-SET &VAL2A = STRREP(20, '&VAL2.EVAL', 1, ')', 1, '' , 20, 'A20');
-SET &VAL2B = TRUNCATE(&VAL2A.EVAL);
-SET &VAL2BLN = &VAL2B.LENGTH;
