HELP!
Heres the situation:
I have to populate a summary table from 3 other tables.

2 of the tables have mulitple records that need to be moved, both with Multipul primary keys.

Table 1 consists of labels, each roll is assigned to an employee, the label type is defined by the SITE ID

Table 3 consists of a machine, this machine has counters of which one is assigned to a label type. These relationships are defined in Table 2

Table 4 is an order table which defines the order number in which each record in the "NEW" table is releated

Example:
Table 1:
siteID
LabelID
EmployeeID
->LabelType FK
|StartNumber

|
|Table 2:
|SiteID PK
->LabelType PK
->CounterType
PK
|
|Table 3:
|SiteID
|EquipmentID PK
->CounterTypePK
StartNumber


Table 4 (Order Table)
Order Number (auto INcreament)
SiteID

NEW TABLE
ORDER NUMBER
LabelID
LabelType
StartNumber
EquipmentID
CounterType
EquipmentStartNumber

There always will be several records from Table 1 and 2 that need to be inserted into the "NEW" table with the ORDER NUMBER from Table 4.

OK, I'd prefer to do this in a Stored procedure because of error trapping...

Is there a quicker way to do this?
either way would someone get me pointed down the right coding path.....

THANKS
