CTE を使用して結果を CROSS APPLY 全体に分割する

このようなものを探しているかもしれません (これは簡略化されたバージョンです。「識別子」として名と comment_date のみを使用しました)。このデータを使用してテストし、今のところ、テキスト列を分割するために最大長 50 をイメージングしました。ヒント:comment_text データ型を VARCHAR(500) に変更します

DECLARE @Comments TABLE
(
    id INT NOT NULL IDENTITY PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED,
    comment_date DATETIME NOT NULL,
    first_name VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
    last_name VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
    comment_title VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
    comment_text VARCHAR(500)
);

    INSERT INTO @Comments VALUES(CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, 'Bob', 'Example','Bob''s Comment', 'Text of Bob''s comment.');
    INSERT INTO @Comments VALUES(CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, 'Alice', 'Example','Alice''s Comment'
    , 'Text of Alice''s comment that is much longer and will need to be split over multiple rows aaaaaa bbbbbb cccccc ddddddddddd eeeeeeeeeeee fffffffffffff ggggggggggggg.');

WITH CTE AS (SELECT comment_date, first_name, '<Note>'+CAST( SUBSTRING(comment_text, 1, 50) AS VARCHAR(500)) +'</Note>'comment_text, 1 AS RN
             FROM @Comments 
             UNION ALL 
             SELECT A.comment_date, A.first_name, '<Text>'+CAST( SUBSTRING(A.comment_text, B.RN*50+1, 50) AS VARCHAR(500)) +'</Text>'AS comment_text, B.RN+1 AS RN
             FROM @Comments A 
             INNER JOIN CTE B ON A.comment_date=B.comment_date AND A.first_name=B.first_name 
            WHERE  LEN(A.comment_text) > B.RN*50+1                    
             )
SELECT A.comment_date, A.first_name, '<title>'+ comment_title+'</title>' AS markup  
FROM @Comments A
UNION ALL
SELECT B.comment_date, B.first_name, B.comment_text AS markup  
FROM  CTE B ;

出力:
