Parse comma separated string into individual rows

All,

Can anyone help me in this task? I have a table named 'Activity' which has two columns: ActivityID and ActivityDetail. Sample rows look like this:

ActivityID ActivityDetail
1 'Football','Basket ball', Tennis'
2 'Basket ball', 'Volley ball'

I would like to have a stored procedure which parses the data into a new table (e.g. named as 'Activity_breadkdown' and with an identity column named 'DetailID') and looks like this:

DetailID ActivityID ActivityDetail
1 1 Football
2 1 Basket ball
3 1 Tennis
4 2 Basket ball
5 2 Volley ball

Thanks in advance
