END;Having seperate variables to store the values in seems like a bad approach, as well as doing it using PL/SQL.
SQL can split data that is comma seperated quite easily...
SQL> with t as (select 'a,b,c,d,e,f,fred,john,1,4' as str from dual)
  2  select regexp_substr(str,'[^,]+',1,level) as str
  3  from t
  4  connect by regexp_substr(str,'[^,]+',1,level) is not null;
STR
a
b
c
d
e
f
fred
john
1
4
10 rows selected.And that can then be processed one by one, or bulk collected into a collection variable for processing etc.
Better still, fix the initial problem which is whatever is giving you the data in a comma seperated list in the first place. It should be supplying the data as a collection or as seperate values/parameters.
