Well it looks like Lowell beat me to the punch on this one. I rolled my own version, which also uses the DelimitedSplit8K function. 😉
;with cte as
(
select 1 as ListID, 'John Doe1 <John.Doe1@abc.com>; Mary Doe1 <Mary.Doe1@abc.com>' as ToList union all
select 2, 'John Doe3 <John.Doe3@abc.com>; Mary Doe1 <Mary.Doe2@abc.org>Some longer name <LongEmailAddressHere@LongDomainName.com>;Short <e@e.e>' union all
select 3, 'Lowell Mumble Mumble <Lowell@somedomain.com>'
)
, Parse1 as
(
select *
from cte
cross apply dbo.DelimitedSplit8K(ToList, '<')
)
, Parse2 as
(
select p1.ListID, s.Item from parse1 p1
cross apply dbo.DelimitedSplit8K(Item, '>') s
where charindex('@', s.Item) > 0
)
select ListID,
Stuff((select ';' + Item from Parse2 p2 where p2.ListID = p1.ListID FOR XML PATH('')), 1, 1, ' ')
from Parse2 p1
group by ListID
I like your double use of delimited split 8k. if i had the time tonight i would set up a test bed and run them both. might get around to it sunday night some time after i get some homework done for a course im taking.
