在表格中插入以逗号分隔的ID

Question

I need to insert records into a SQL Server table. The client send ids I need to insert into a specific column in the table:

(2,4,123,1357,1234,5657,753);

Using this function I'm splitting the comma delimited string, but not sure how to insert it to the table along with the other columns

I need to create something that will generate inserts such as:

insert into table_name (id,column_2,column_3) values (2, column_s_some_value, column_3_some_value);
insert into table_name (id,column_2,column_3) values (4, column_s_some_other_value, column_3_some_value);
insert into table_name (id,column_2,column_3) values (123, column_s_some_value, column_3_some_value);
ETC...

How can I achieve that?

Answer 1

the split function is a Table-Valued Function, which means it can be treated as a table, and you can do an INSERT..SELECT

insert into table_name (id,column_2,column_3)
SELECT s.item, column_s_some_value, column_3_some_value
FROM Split(@input_string, ',') s
{JOINS if needed to get other column values}

Answer 2

If you do want to split strings, the most efficient way to get that done is through the use of the tally table as outlined here by Jeff Moden . I'd strongly suggest you use this method in just about any version of SQL Server.
