Found this solution to get substring after slash () character

DECLARE @st1 varchar(10)
SET @st1 = 'MYTEST\aftercompare'
SELECT @st1
,SUBSTRING(@st1, CHARINDEX('\', @st1) + 1, LEN(@st1))

But is there a way to get substring after second slash or even more?

DECLARE @st1 varchar(50)
--Added more slashes
SET @st1 = 'MYTEST\aftercompare\slash2\slash3\slash4'
SELECT @st1
--This part would need some work
--,SUBSTRING(@st1, CHARINDEX('\', @st1) + 1, LEN(@st1))

And getting only the substring between the slashes.

Values: [1] "aftercompare" - [2] "slash2" - [3] "slash3" - [4] "slash4"
