Hi all,

i want to split a string in oracle
My desired output is
declare
str varchar2(10) := 'Good Evening';
begin 

for i in 1..10 loop

dbms_output.put_line(str(i));
end loop;

it is possible to hv output like 

str(1) = G
str(2) = o
str(3) = o
str(4) = d


thanks in advance

Yes, simply use concatenation to add the string that you want onto the 'dynamic' part of the string

Use SUBSTR()
SQL> with data as
  2  (select 'Good Morning' the_string
  3   from   dual
  4  )
  5  select substr(the_string, i, 1)
  6  from   data
  7  ,      (select level i
  8          from   data
  9          connect by level <= length(data.the_string)
 10         )
 11  /

SUBS
----
G
o
o
d

M
o
r
n
i
n
g

[Edit: added example]

You can use this code
(note: I have changed the varchar2(10) to varchar2(12) to give enough room for the message):
declare
str varchar2(12) :='Good Evening';
l_len number := length(str);
begin
	for i in 1..l_len loop
	dbms_output.put_line(substr(str, i, 1));
	end loop;	
End;

(select 'Goodmorning' str from dual)
select level,substr(str,level,1) from stringed
connect by level<length(str);

In what/which way this is different from FRANK`s solutions?
And more over if you use connect by level<length(str);

you get up to 10('g') missing.
SQL> with stringed as
  2  (select 'Goodmorning' str from dual)
  3  select level,substr(str,level,1) from stringed
  4  connect by level<length(str);

     LEVEL S
---------- -
         1 G
         2 o
         3 o
         4 d
         5 m
         6 o
         7 r
         8 n
         9 i
        10 n

10 rows selected.

in india we write "Goodmornin"g" not like "Goodmornin".

You should re read MY post. i don`t know about much more about your place/country.
And already little foot answered Michel where exactly the "g" missing.
Please change your spectacles. Wink(as your smiley wearing a black ones(blind))

does not matter where you belongs to, if you live in India or on the Dark side of moon Bug is Bug.

ramoradba missing 'G' is Bug in your code since the complete string is 'Goodmorning', in my view 'g' should have been displayed.

@Blind that is the 'COOL' smiley , Since Michel has very keen Eye to catch even missing 'G'.

It is nice to see some one is reading your post so carefully and investing his Valuable time for you post.

you still did not get it do you? Only point I wanted to make is 'g' is missing. Michel spotted it and I just watned to appriciate.

still In my view OP's requirment is to process complete string.

Mr.Rahul

If you look at
http://www.orafaq.com/forum/mv/msg/154481/441063/136607/#msg_441063
the user provided the solution not me and i pointed it is same as FRank`s solution except (<=).
And if the OP really use that solution he may miss the "g".That is My point. NO more argument. i dont wanna argue in this more.
