BuildRowSetFromString()

Creates a rowset from a character string by splitting the string at the specified delimiter.

The BuildRowSetFromString() function has two parameters:

• sourceData (string): Required. A string that contains the data to load into a rowset.
• delimiter (string): Required. The character (such as a comma) that is used as a delimiter in the source data.

To call the function, pass it the string of data that you want to convert to a rowset, and the character that is used as a delimiter in the source data.

This example creates a variable with a string of data, and another variable that contains the delimiter for that data. The example uses these variables to create a rowset from the string of data.

The example returns a rowset with three rows.
