Split a string into individual characters in Sql Server 2005

Question

Hi I have an input as

ID  data
1   hello
2   sql

The desired output being

ID  RowID  Chars
1    1     H
1    2     e
1    3     l
1    4     l
1    5     o
2    1     s
2    2     q
2    3     l

My approach so far being

Declare @t table(ID  INT IDENTITY , data varchar(max))
Insert into @t Select 'hello' union all select 'sql'
--Select * from @t
;With CteMaxlen As(
Select MaxLength = max(len(data)) from @t)
, Num_Cte AS
(     
      SELECT 1 AS rn
      UNION ALL
      SELECT rn +1 AS rn 
      FROM Num_Cte 
      WHERE rn <(select MaxLength from CteMaxlen)
)
-- Shred into individual characters
, Get_Individual_Chars_Cte AS
( 
      SELECT  
            ID
            ,Row_ID =ROW_NUMBER() Over(PARTITION by ID Order by ID)
            ,chars               
      FROM @t,Num_Cte
      CROSS APPLY( SELECT SUBSTRING((select data from  @t),rn,1)  AS chars) SplittedChars       
)

Select * from Get_Individual_Chars_Cte 

The query is not working at all with an exception being

Msg 512, Level 16, State 1, Line 4
Subquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when the subquery follows =, !=, <, <= , >, >= or when the subquery is used as an expression.

Edit :

I found my answer

;with Get_Individual_Chars_Cte AS
( 
   SELECT 
        ID,
        Row_ID =ROW_NUMBER() Over(PARTITION by ID Order by ID) 
        ,SUBSTRING(Data,Number,1) AS [Char]--,

FROM @t  
INNER JOIN master.dbo.spt_values ON
 Number BETWEEN 1 AND LEN(Data)
 AND type='P'

)

Select * from Get_Individual_Chars_Cte

;with cte as
(
  select ID,
         substring(data, 1, 1) as Chars,
         stuff(data, 1, 1, '') as data,
         1 as RowID
  from @t
  union all
  select ID,
         substring(data, 1, 1) as Chars,
         stuff(data, 1, 1, '') as data,
         RowID + 1 as RowID
  from cte
  where len(data) > 0
)
select ID, RowID, Chars
from cte
order by ID, RowID
