Question

I tried to make the title as clear as possible… here is my scenario:

I have 2 tables (let’s call them table A and table B) that have a similar schema. I would like write a stored procedure that would select specific columns of data out of table A, and insert this data as a new record in table B.

Can someone point me in the write direction to make such a query? I am unsure how to ‘Hold’ the values from the first query, so that I may then perform the insert.

I am trying to avoid making a query, processing it with C# and then making another query…

Thanks.

Answer 1

INSERT INTO B (Col1, Col2) SELECT Col1, Col2 FROM A 

Is this what you mean?
