Kirti,

my first thought and fwiw would be to write a PL/SQL routine.

I need some help...

The database table has following structure. commision_id number
com_text_msg varchar2(500)

The second column contains data fields that are delimited by ~ and delimiter's position varies. But there are only eight data fields in the column.

Is there a way in SQL, other than substr/instr combinations, to extract each data field to report?

Thanks.
