• Hi

    I recommend create a nice function on your database.

    CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[getParmsFromString]

    (@String VARCHAR(MAX))

    RETURNS @Parms TABLE

    (

    Token VARCHAR(MAX)

    )

    AS

    BEGIN

    IF CHARINDEX(',', @String) != 0

    BEGIN

    ;WITH cte0(Token, List) AS

    (

    SELECT SUBSTRING(@String, 1, CHARINDEX(',',@String,1) - 1)

    ,SUBSTRING(@String,CHARINDEX(',',@String,1) + 1, LEN(@String)) + ','

    UNION ALL

    SELECT SUBSTRING(List,1,ISNULL(CHARINDEX(',',List,1) - 1,1))

    ,SUBSTRING(List,CHARINDEX(',',List,1) + 1, LEN(List))

    FROM cte0

    WHERE LEN(cte0.List) > 0

    )

    INSERT INTO @Parms (Token)

    SELECT Token

    FROM cte0

    OPTION (MAXRECURSION 0)

    RETURN;

    END

    ELSE

    INSERT INTO @Parms

    SELECT @String

    RETURN;

    END

    GO

    To use this function all you need to do is call it and parse the Paramater value.

    The return of this function will give you a table with each Currency in the Paramater value as a single row.

    For example

    String1 = 'Dollar'

    String2 = '1,2,3,4,5'

    select * from dbo.getParmsFromString(String1) will result in

    Dollar

    select * from dbo.getParmsFromString(String2 ) will result in

    1

    2

    3

    4

    5

    Hope this will help you solve your problem.
