I have column in my database where the values are coming like the following:
3862,3654,3828
In dummy column any no. of comma separated values can come. I tried with following query but it is creating duplicate results.
select regexp_substr(dummy,'[^,]+',1,Level) as dummycol
from (select * from dummy_table)
connect by level <= length(REGEXP_REPLACE(dummy,'[^,]+'))+1
I am not understanding the problem. Can anyone can help?

Try the following,
