Assume I have a text field in a table. Further assume that the text strings are delimited by the pipe character "|". I want to know how many pipe characters occur in each field, ie. the select statement should return: fldText Occurrences test|ddd|ww|ex 3 fff|sss 1 eenie|meenie|minie|moe 3 What is the correct SQL to produce the desired result?
