TSQL String modify

Question

I have a problem with string. I have a variable @Rights which looks like \'ASD,ZXC,QWE,IOP,JKL\' What I need to do is use this string in

SELECT * FROM dbo.Ex         


        

Answer 1

you can create a split function

CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[Split]
(
    @String NVARCHAR(4000),
    @Delimiter NCHAR(1)
)
RETURNS TABLE
AS
RETURN
(
    WITH Split(stpos,endpos)
    AS(
        SELECT 0 AS stpos, CHARINDEX(@Delimiter,@String) AS endpos
        UNION ALL
        SELECT endpos+1, CHARINDEX(@Delimiter,@String,endpos+1)
            FROM Split
            WHERE endpos > 0
    )
    SELECT 'Id' = ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY (SELECT 1)),
        'Data' = SUBSTRING(@String,stpos,COALESCE(NULLIF(endpos,0),LEN(@String)+1)-stpos)
    FROM Split
)
GO

and after you can convert the string in a temp table

DECLARE @Rights NVARCHAR(128)
SET @Rights = 'ASD,ZXC,QWE,IOP,JKL'
SELECT *
INTO #Temp
FROM dbo.Split(@Rights , ',')

and after you can use it in your query like this

SELECT * FROM dbo.Example
WHERE Rights IN (SELECT Data FROM #Temp)
