通过delimeter函数得到字符串的n个部分:

create function GetStringPartByDelimeter (
    @value as nvarchar(max),
    @delimeter as nvarchar(max),
    @position as int
) returns NVARCHAR(MAX) 
AS BEGIN
    declare @startPos as int
    declare @endPos as int
    set @endPos = -1
    while (@position > 0 and @endPos != 0) begin
        set @startPos = @endPos + 1
        set @endPos = charindex(@delimeter, @value, @startPos)

        if(@position = 1) begin
            if(@endPos = 0)
                set @endPos = len(@value) + 1

            return substring(@value, @startPos, @endPos - @startPos)
        end

        set @position = @position - 1
    end

    return null
end

以及用法:

select dbo.GetStringPartByDelimeter ('a;b;c;d;e', ';', 3)

返回:

c

下面的示例使用递归CTE

更新18.09.2013

CREATE FUNCTION dbo.SplitStrings_CTE(@List nvarchar(max), @Delimiter nvarchar(1))
RETURNS @returns TABLE (val nvarchar(max), [level] int, PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED([level]))
AS
BEGIN
;WITH cte AS
 (
  SELECT SUBSTRING(@List, 0, CHARINDEX(@Delimiter,  @List + @Delimiter)) AS val,
         CAST(STUFF(@List + @Delimiter, 1, CHARINDEX(@Delimiter, @List + @Delimiter), '') AS nvarchar(max)) AS stval, 
         1 AS [level]
  UNION ALL
  SELECT SUBSTRING(stval, 0, CHARINDEX(@Delimiter, stval)),
         CAST(STUFF(stval, 1, CHARINDEX(@Delimiter, stval), '') AS nvarchar(max)),
         [level] + 1
  FROM cte
  WHERE stval != ''
  )
  INSERT @returns
  SELECT REPLACE(val, ' ','' ) AS val, [level]
  FROM cte
  WHERE val > ''
  RETURN
END

使用SQL Server 2016及以上版本。使用这段代码修剪字符串，忽略NULL值，并按正确的顺序应用行索引。它也适用于空格分隔符:

DECLARE @STRING_VALUE NVARCHAR(MAX) = 'one, two,,three, four,     five'

SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY R.[index]) [index], R.[value] FROM
(
    SELECT
        1 [index], NULLIF(TRIM([value]), '') [value] FROM STRING_SPLIT(@STRING_VALUE, ',') T
    WHERE
        NULLIF(TRIM([value]), '') IS NOT NULL
) R

我一直在使用vzczc的答案使用递归cte的一段时间，但一直想更新它来处理可变长度分隔符，也处理字符串与前驱和滞后“分隔符”，如当你有一个csv文件的记录，如:

“鲍勃”,“史密斯”桑尼维尔”,“CA”

或者当你处理如下所示的六部分fqn时。我广泛地使用这些来记录subject_fqn的审计，错误处理等，parsename只处理四个部分:

[netbios_name].[machine_name].[instance].[database].[schema].[table].[column]

这是我的更新版本，感谢vzczc的原始帖子!

我在网上寻找解决方案，下面的工作对我来说。 Ref。

然后像这样调用函数:

SELECT * FROM dbo.split('ram shyam hari gopal',' ')

SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO

CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[Split](@String VARCHAR(8000), @Delimiter CHAR(1))

    IF len(@String)<1 OR @String IS NULL  RETURN
