How to split semi colon separated values in a text field into tasks.

The field is populated with text that is semi colon (;) seperated values. I want to create a new task based on each delimited value. 

I am able to change the format of the data populating the field if needed.

Yes correct the data in the field looks like this:

text1;text2;text3;text4;

And I want to create a task for each like this:

Task1(text1), Task2 (text2), Task3 (text3) etc.

Thanks.

Hi Leigh,

you can do this....
List<String> lstOfTask = fieldName.split(';');


Thanks,
