One Column into Rows

I have data in a table that looks like below:
ColumnA               ColumnB
123                    abc|cde|fgr
345                    def|ght|sew
890                    deq|nmk|lop|lip|fre|dwsThere is no limit on how many values you can have in ColumnB and they are pipe delimited.
I need to split this one column into rows as:
ColumnA               ColumnB
123                    abc
123                    cde

Converting columns into rows

Dear all....I need to convert all columns into rows in a table. For example table has following columns:
Emp_Cod........Val1......Val2......Val3
1 a b c
Now I wish that each column should display as a value like:
Emp_Cod........Val1
1 a
1 b
1 c
Now the one way to solve this job is to write a union statement for each column but for this I'll have to write equal number of select statements as there are columns.
What I need that is there anyway to write minimum code for this job, is there any alternate way???

SQL> with t as(select 1 emp_code, 'a' val1, 'b' val2, 'c' val3 from dual)
2 select*from t unpivot(v for c in(val1,val2,val3));
EMP_CODE C     V
        1 VAL1 a
        1 VAL2 b
        1 VAL3 c
SQL> col COLUMN_VALUE for a20
SQL> with t as(select 1 emp_code, 'a' val1, 'b' val2, 'c' val3 from dual)
2 select*from t,table(sys.odcivarchar2list(val1,val2,val3));
EMP_CODE V V V COLUMN_VALUE
        1 a b c a
        1 a b c b
        1 a b c c

Note that the above SQL performs the following steps:
    * determines how many elements are in each string (WITH clause);
    * for each string, generates a collection of n elements (TABLE expression), where n is the derived number of elements in the string. Note in particular the use of "less than" in the "CONNECT BY ROWNUM < ilv.no_of_elements" on line 26. In all versions other than 10.1.x, this will need to be "CONNECT BY ROWNUM <= ilv.no_of_elements" (i.e. "less than or equal to"). There is an unusual bug with this row-generation technique in 10.1 that generates an additional row from the CONNECT BY;
    * uses the generated rows in a Cartesian Product with the original data to generate n rows per string, based on the above definition of n;
    * calculates the start and end position of each element in each string (INSTR); and
    * cuts each element from each string (SUBSTR).

Splitting one column into 4 columns

there will be thousands of rows in the column. Can anybody help how to split it as shown.The length may very from row to row
Thanks for your help.........

It is working...thank u very much... I found one more issue here
PanelPanel=MP01110201&YearYear=2013&Source=1&UserID=aad2779

PanelPanel=MP11101276&Source=1&YearYear=2014&PNR=2&UserID=ddc1565
I found 3 kinds of formats in the same column... I didn't observe the data carefully while posting the
question..sorry about that. In this case if we need to show as
panel yearyear source
userid
MP01110201 2013 1 aad2779
MP11100070 2014 1 ddc1535
MP11101276 2014
1 ddc1565
is it possible to filter like this? Should we use any case statement in query while we have diff formats
like this?

ALV to select more than one column by row using set_table_for_first_display

Hello everyone,
I am developing an application (ALV OO) to select more than 1 column by row ( one ). This is an a holiday application so the idea is:
-One column will be the day, and the row will be the user.
So I am trying to select more than one day by user (that would be the row).
I am using the method set_table_for_first_display but when it shows the alv, doesn't let me to select more than one column with a click of the mouse.
Does anybody know if I can do this (select more than one column, by row) in somehow?
Please let me know if you need more clarification about this.
Thanks in advance
Diego

Hi Diego,
it's all in the documentation.
set different selection modes through the value of the field u201CSEL_MODEu201D in the layout structure.
SPACE
same as 'B'
see 'B'
Default setting
'A'
Column and row selection
Multiple columns
Multiple rows
The user selects the rows through pushbuttons at the left border of the grid control.
'B'
Simple selection, list box
Multiple columns
Multiple rows
'C'
Multiple selection, list box
Multiple columns
Multiple rows
'D'
Cell selection
Multiple columns
Multiple rows
Any cells
The user selects the rows through pushbuttons at the left border of the grid control
Beyond setting this option, you can set u201CNO_ROWMARKu201D option to hide the mark column which is normally visible when the selection mode allows multiple row selection.
One point to notice here is that if you set your ALV Grid as to be editable, it may override your selection mode regardless of your layout settings.

How to display the rows in to columns and columns into rows?

0003 555-555-0003 [email protected] CAD
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This is another solution. Suppose your actual table's name is test(which has the redundant data). create a table like this:
CREATE TABLE test2 (BUYER_ID number(10),PHONE_NUMBER varchar2(50),EMAIL varchar2(50),CURRENCY varchar2(50));
then you will type this procedure:
declare
phone_number_v varchar2(50);
EMAIL_v varchar2(50);
CURRENCY_v varchar2(50);
cursor my_test is select * from test;
begin
for my_test_curs in my_test loop
select ATTRIBUTE_VALUE INTO phone_number_v from test
where person_id=my_test_curs.person_id
and attribute_name ='PHONE_NUMBER';
select ATTRIBUTE_VALUE INTO EMAIL_v from test
where person_id=my_test_curs.person_id
and attribute_name ='EMAIL';
select ATTRIBUTE_VALUE INTO CURRENCY_v from test
where person_id=my_test_curs.person_id
and attribute_name ='CURRENCY';
INSERT INTO test2
VALUES (my_test_curs.person_id,phone_number_v,EMAIL_v,CURRENCY_v);
END LOOP;
END;
Then you will create your final table like this:
create table final_table as select * from test2 where 1=2;
After that write this code:
INSERT ALL
into final_table
SELECT DISTINCT(BUYER_ID),PHONE_NUMBER,EMAIL,CURRENCY
FROM TEST2;
If you have a huge amount of data in your original table this solution may take a long time to do what you need.

How to achive this result .
I dont have any idea to do this query.
Please help guys.
Thanks in advance.

Well,
As long as your code doesn't have to run in production, simplest way is:
WM_CONCAT (but it's not documented)
or use XMLAGG, it's simpler than a connect by:
MHO%xe> with t as (
2 select 1 col, 'xy' str from dual union all
3 select 2, 'xyy' from dual union all
4 select 3, 'mm'from dual union all
5 select 4, 'pp' from dual union all
6 select 8, 'pp' from dual union all
7 select 12, 'pp' from dual union all
8 select 40, 'pp' from dual
9 )-- actual query, based on id's generated above:
10 select rtrim(xmlagg(xmlelement(e,col||',')).extract('//text()'),',') col
11 from t;
COL
1,2,3,4,8,12,40
1 rij is geselecteerd.

Table with column group (one column) - next row is showing on new page instead of below previous row

I am creating new table. My goal is to display some text in few lines like this:
"AAAAAAAA" "BBBBBBBB" "CCCCCCCCC"
"DDDDDDD" "EEEEEEEE"
Actually the next row (with "DD" and "EE" values) is not displayed below first row, but on the next page.
I've tried to put table into rectangle, disabled all page breaks and still the same effect. Any help?

Hi Heidi,
Actually, it's not solution, I only gave more details about my problem :)
Another description:
In my report I'm creating Tablix with Column grouping. There is only one column with image (every image has same width). If there is only three pictures, then they are displayed next to each other in one row.
In case, there is more than three pics, another row is showing on next page. I'd like to display all rows one after another on one page.
I've tried to create three vertical lists, and filter each column group to display only records:
1) =(RowNumber("Tablix1")) mod 3 = 1
2) =(RowNumber("Tablix1")) mod 3 = 2
3) =(RowNumber("Tablix1")) mod 3 = 0
Unfortunately, I got an error:
"A FilterExpression for the tablix ‘Tablix1’ uses the function RowNumber. RowNumber cannot be used in filters."
Do You have any other propositions?
--------EDIT--------
ok, I manged to solve it. As I said, I've created three vertival lists and placed them next to each other.
Then, instead of using filter, I've used Visibility trigger:
1)
=IIf(RunningValue(Fields![rowgroupfield].Value, COUNTDISTINCT, "Tablix1") mod 3 = 1, false, true)
2)
=IIf(RunningValue(Fields![rowgroupfield].Value, COUNTDISTINCT, "Tablix2") mod 3 = 2, false, true)
3)
=IIf(RunningValue(Fields![rowgroupfield].Value, COUNTDISTINCT, "Tablix3") mod 3 = 0, false, true)
I had to use function RunningValue to count all occurrences, as my report is quite complex and "RowNumber" [ssrs function] and "ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY [rowgroupfield])" [sql query] were not working properly.
