Need help splitting string from column signa so that all characters ends up on a separate rows in an new table maintaining id and nr.
signa can contain multiple characters ABC, HHSS, HAHAH and so on.

expected output:
id nr signa
1, '1000001', 'ABC'
1, '1000001', 'VQW'
2, '1000002', 'GJO'
2, '1000002', 'EOO'
.
.
.

create table #testKBV
(
id int not null
,nr varchar(10) not null
,signa varchar(20) null
)

DROP TABLE #testKBV

insert into #testKBV(id, nr, signa) values(1, '1000001', 'ABC, VQW, TTT')
insert into #testKBV(id, nr, signa) values(2, '1000002', 'GJO, EOO')
insert into #testKBV(id, nr, signa) values(3, '1000003', 'QQQ, LLL, MQP')
insert into #testKBV(id, nr, signa) values(4, '1000004', 'ABP, ZAS, AWE')
insert into #testKBV(id, nr, signa) values(5, '1000005', 'ABC')
insert into #testKBV(id, nr, signa) values(6, '1000006', 'OPP, EEE, LLL')
insert into #testKBV(id, nr, signa) values(7, '1000007', 'UWG, III')
insert into #testKBV(id, nr, signa) values(8, '1000008', 'GTR, DAS, UVV')
insert into #testKBV(id, nr, signa) values(9, '1000009', 'MNB, ASD, ERT')

Search this site for fnParseValues, it takes a delimited string and returns the elements in a table.
