I used to write similar code like this for years and then discovered tally tables made it easier and faster IMHO.
Here's an example:

CREATE FUNCTION dbo.udfStringtoTable
(
@String NVARCHAR(100) ,
@Delimiter CHAR(1)
)
RETURNS @Results TABLE
(String VARCHAR(100))
AS
BEGIN
INSERT INTO @Results
SELECT SUBSTRING(@String+@Delimiter, n,
CHARINDEX(@Delimiter, @String+@Delimiter, n) - n)
FROM tally
WHERE n <= LEN(@String)
AND SUBSTRING(@Delimiter + @String,
n, 1) = @Delimiter
ORDER BY n
RETURN
END
GO
