Question

I need to insert data into another table using stored procedure that looks something like this:

CREATE PROCEDURE T.countnum
AS
   Insert into T1 values(select count(*) from T.countTable)

But it isn’t working I saw several example but not with selection. Any example?

Answer 1

use db;
CREATE PROCEDURE T.countnum
AS
Insert into T1 ([column_name])
select count(*) 
from T.countTable
go

or

use db;
CREATE PROCEDURE T.countnum
AS

declare @counting int

select @counting = count(*) 
from T.countTable

Insert into T1 ([column_name]) values (@counting)

go

And you should specify the column to count like select count(id) from T.countTable
