1Traditionally that is a presentation layer issue, and having comma separated values in a database is an anti-pattern/code-smell. Relational-Database design patterns are for normalised data, not comma separated lists. Do you have a use-case that shows why you need to de-nomralise your data structures? Perhaps we can point you at a different pattern that does not require that. – MatBailie Mar 06 '14 at 18:16

Comma/string to table: How can I select from list of values in Oracle
select column_value from
table(sys.dbms_debug_vc2coll('One', 'Two', 'Three', 'Four'));
SELECT trim(regexp_substr('Err1, Err2, Err3', '[^,]+', 1, LEVEL)) str_2_tab
FROM dual
CONNECT BY LEVEL <= regexp_count('Err1, Err2, Err3', '[^,]+')
/
Table to comma/string:
WM_CONCAT() in 10g as jle mentioned or LISTAGG() in 11g.
