Question

I am working with SQL Server, I have successfully converted a table\'s rows into comma-separated values, now I want to convert that string of comma-separated values back to

Answer 1

Try this Function

CREATE FUNCTION UF_CSVToTable_new(@psCSString VARCHAR(8000))
RETURNS @otTemp TABLE(sID VARCHAR(20))
AS
BEGIN
 DECLARE @sTemp VARCHAR(10)
  WHILE LEN(@psCSString) > 0
  BEGIN
  SET @sTemp = LEFT(@psCSString, ISNULL(NULLIF(CHARINDEX(',', @psCSString) - 1, -1),
                    LEN(@psCSString)))
  SET @psCSString = SUBSTRING(@psCSString,ISNULL(NULLIF(CHARINDEX(',', @psCSString), 0),
                               LEN(@psCSString)) + 1, LEN(@psCSString))
  INSERT INTO @otTemp VALUES (@sTemp)
  END
RETURN
END

Usage

DECLARE @str AS varchar(Max)
SET @str = '0.00,0.00,1576.95,0.00,4105.88,1017.87,0.00,6700.70'
SELECT * FROM UF_CSVToTable_new(@str)
