Question

I have a table in ms sql 2008 and I want to take 2 columns(the pk and another column) and put it into a new table.

How can I extract all the data in these columns already and put them in the new database?

Answer 1

If you want to create a new table then you can try

SELECT .... INTO... FROM

E.G:

SELECT Pk_Column, Other_Column
  INTO NewTable
  FROM CurrentTable

If you have already created the table then try INSERT .... INTO .... SELECT .... FROM

INSERT INTO NewTable   
SELECT Pk_Column, Other_Column   
  FROM CurrentTable
