I wonder if someone can help please.

I have a field in a database which contains data as follows:
"AB1235/AB1234"
"AB1235"
"AB1233/AB1235"
"AB1234"

I want to be able to group by each instance of ABxxxx.

I know I can split them at the "/" but can I then group as
"AB1233" = 1
"AB1234" = 2
"AB1235" = 3

Any help would be much appreciated.

Ed

you would not be able to group on them because the data only existsw on one row and would only appear in the first group it matches to.
You could split it in a command or stored proc and union the data to create multiple rows.
