PL/SQL help - split an address

I have a single address column that i want to split.
For example I have an address with carriage returns like:

address
----------
Administration Tech Services

1234 Elm Avenue

West Building

I would like a SELECT query to split this address column into 3 like:
address address2 address3
---- ---- ----
Administration Tech Services 1234 Elm Avenue West BuildingYou may need to create a function like this:
Create Or Replace Function Get_Addr
(P_Line Number, P_Addr Varchar2)
Return Varchar2 Is
Type Addr_Typ Is Table Of Varchar2(1000);
V_Addr Addr_Typ;
V_Tmp Varchar2(1000);
I Pls_Integer;
J Pls_Integer;
K Pls_Integer;
L Pls_Integer;
Begin
V_Tmp:=Rtrim(P_Addr)||Chr(10);
For I In 1..P_Line Loop
V_Addr(I):='';
End Loop;
I:=0;
L:=Length(V_Tmp);
While (L > 0)
Loop
K:=Instr(V_Tmp,Chr(10));
If K = 0 Then
Exit;
End If;
J:= K-1;
If J > 0 Then
I:=I+1;
V_Addr(I):= Substr(V_Tmp,1,J);
V_Tmp:=Rtrim(Substr(V_Tmp||' ',K+1));
End If;
L:=Length(V_Tmp);
End Loop;
Return V_Addr(P_Line);
End;
/
And use it like:

UPDATE MyAddrTab
SET Address2=Get_Addr(2,Address)
, Address3=Get_Addr(3,Address);
COMMIT;
UPDATE MyAddrTab
SET Address=Get_Addr(1,Address);
COMMIT;
:eek:

PS: You will need to validate parameters!
