Breaking Single Column text into multiple rows

santhosh — Wed, 10 Apr 2013 07:08:59 GMT

i have a text in column with $END$ which i need to break into multiple rows

As part of the bank s DR strategy, it has a well laid out DR plan in place, which inter-alia covers details of alternative

site in a different city/seismic zone and also provides for resource mappings for all the critical activities identified by

the Bank.$END$ In order to fulfill the DR requirements, ICICI Bank has deployed various replication features as offered by the RDBMS

and also the hardware based replication in order to fulfill the DR requirements.$END$The Recovery Time Objective (RTO) for all the critical applications identified by the Bank is between 2-8 hours.$END$ TheBank has undertaken periodic DR drills of these critical systems as per the regulatory guidelines to ensure that the

alternate systems at the DR site are always available in case of system unavailability due to any catastrophic event.

where ever i get $END$ it needs to insert into new row

Nice with some business requirements to support your question

But, you may need to define in more detail how you want break (what?) into multiple rows, perhaps a data sample before and after the "break"?

Gosh, I thought the text was a part of your case description, not the data itself:smileylaugh:

Take a look at the FINDW-function, which result you can use as input to the SUBSTR-function, combined with explicit OUTPUT statements. That would probably do the work.
