| If the two tables have the exact same structure, then this will work:INSERT INTO table2 SELECT * FROM table1If the two tables have a different structure, you need to explicitly list the columns they each have in common:INSERT INTO table2 (col1, col2, col3) SELECT col1, col2, col3 FROM table1Books Online has all the details behind the INSERT command. |
