Hi,

If i have one table with one row, how to break it by delimiter to get multiple rows from that.

Example:
Source Table T1
+++++++++++++++
+My Name is Raghav+
+++++++++++++++
Final Table
++++++++
+My +
+Name +
+is +
+Raghav +
++++++++

I want delimited by Space.

CREATE FUNCTION dbo.Split(@String varchar(8000), @Delimiter char(1))
returns @temptable TABLE (items varchar(8000))
as
begin
declare @idx int
declare @slice varchar(8000)

select @idx = 1
if len(@String)<1 or @String is null return

while @idx!= 0
begin
set @idx = charindex(@Delimiter,@String)
if @idx!=0
set @slice = left(@String,@idx - 1)
else
set @slice = @String

if(len(@slice)>0)
insert into @temptable(Items) values(@slice)

set @String = right(@String,len(@String) - @idx)
if len(@String) = 0 break
end
return
end


/*--------Compile the above code in your server and test with
below select statement , here delimiter is ',' --------*/


select * from dbo.split('Chennai,Bangalore,Mumbai',',')


There is no other way, you will have to split thro' logic.

Hope this will help
