Question

I want to build SQL command.

I have 2 tables,
the first one has :

songname - string
genre - int

The second has :

genre - int
genrename - string

I want to build a command that will do insert:

INSERT INTO Songs (songname,genre) VALUES (blablabla,*)

and instead of the * I want to take the value from the second table where genrename is equal to 3 for example.

Answer 1

INSERT INTO Songs (songname,genre) 
SELECT 'blablabla', S.VALUE
FROM SECONDTABLE S
WHERE genrename = 3
