SQL function to Split the String by Delimiter and insert into a table variable






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

    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;







































USE THIS FUNCTION HERE:


SET @Values=(select top 1 ALLkeywords from @temp)

SELECT LTRIM(RTRIM(items)) FROM [dbo].[Split] (@Values, ',') 


@Values contains the keywords with commas
