Hi,
I am trying to find the position of a character in a string which appears
multiple times.
The POSITION function returns the position of the character when it first
occurs.
For eg:
select position ( ' ' in 'Hi How are you');
This returns the result as "3".
But i need to result to be
3
7
11
Can anyone please let me know what would be the best way to do this.
Thanks
