OK, I take "You Can't" as a personal challenge.

The following entered into the Create Result Fields will do what you ask:

Field       Expression                       
NEWFLD      'ZeroOne Two '                   
                                             
                                             
                                             
STAT        substr(NEWFLD, ((IndFld * 4) + 1),
            4)                               
                                             
ASSUMING! IndFld is your code field, and it is numeric.  Otherwise,
create a small file with DDS, place your Indicator Values in one field,
your replacement values in the second field.  Add that file to your
query & you can use the replacement text as output.

good luck.
