Hello Team,

Could anyone help me in spiting an Object name into a column name?

Like In Query we are getting Object name as in One Column :

R:\ClientReports\OpenCaseReport\DataFiles\AmeriHealth_Open\CaseReport_20101210.txt

I wanted to spit that into 6 columns as A ,B,C,D,E,F

The output would be like this

Header table : A |B|C|D|E|F
Row Data : R: |ClientReports|OpenCaseReport|DataFiles|AmeriHealthOpen|CaseReportt_20101210.txt
