Forvandling af en kommasepareret streng til individuelle rækker

Du kan bruge de vidunderlige rekursive funktioner fra SQL Server:

Eksempeltabel:

CREATE TABLE Testdata
(
    SomeID INT,
    OtherID INT,
    String VARCHAR(MAX)
);

INSERT Testdata SELECT 1,  9, '18,20,22';
INSERT Testdata SELECT 2,  8, '17,19';
INSERT Testdata SELECT 3,  7, '13,19,20';
INSERT Testdata SELECT 4,  6, '';
INSERT Testdata SELECT 9, 11, '1,2,3,4';

Forespørgslen

WITH tmp(SomeID, OtherID, DataItem, String) AS
(
    SELECT
        SomeID,
        OtherID,
        LEFT(String, CHARINDEX(',', String + ',') - 1),
        STUFF(String, 1, CHARINDEX(',', String + ','), '')
    FROM Testdata
    UNION all

    SELECT
        SomeID,
        OtherID,
        LEFT(String, CHARINDEX(',', String + ',') - 1),
        STUFF(String, 1, CHARINDEX(',', String + ','), '')
    FROM tmp
    WHERE
        String > ''
)
SELECT
    SomeID,
    OtherID,
    DataItem
FROM tmp
ORDER BY SomeID;
-- OPTION (maxrecursion 0)
-- normally recursion is limited to 100. If you know you have very long
-- strings, uncomment the option
