Creating a table listing of records where a client code appears in the Title text string

Hi,
In the Records Table, use the Query Editor to split "Description of Contents" column by rows.
Hi Ashish,
I'm sorry, but I don't entirely understand. In Query Editor under the Transform tab and the Text Column group, I have the following options to "Split Column":
By Delimiter
By Number of Characters
By Positions
By Lowercase to Uppercase
By Uppercase to Lowercase
By Digit to Non-Digit
By Non-Digit to Digit
Which one of the above is split column by rows?
I may not have explained myself properly....
The actual "Description of Contents" field varies in length and format - all I can notice is that one or more Client codes appear within this field in no consistent manner.
Is it possible to use the Client table as a variable/parameter (not sure which) to search in the "Description of Contents" field for that client code and then record (somewhere) the corresponding record number that it appears within. Sorry if I didn't make that clearer before.
The actual file I need to apply this to has thousands of rows to search through and there are multiple client codes to search for. I just made up a simple example with a few dummy client codes and record numbers.
I hope that makes it a little clearer of what I am trying to do.
Appreciate your help!
