SQL is not good at that, so you're generally better off not trying. Yet there are ways if you really need to.
Please use "Improve question" to add examples.
And how many such values are involved?

You didn't try anything. Next time please try to google at least. Here are some articles on codeproject that may be helpful:

Solution 1

generally store data in DB table with ',' separated is not a good practice. it's not follow normalization rule. it's ok . now, solution is

select * from tbl  (','+ RTRIM(tblcolumn) +',') like '%,'+ condition +'

There is at least a WHERE missing from this solution ... at the moment it is just gibberish. You might want to update it.
