Question

I want to copy data to a new database. However another table is included in the process where data should be put.

Old table:

DB1.dbo.pages (id, title, content)

New table(s):

DB2.dbo.Page (id)
DB2.dbo.Content (id, pageid, title, content)

How can I select all data from pages while splitting/storing it in Page and Content?

Answer 1

what is pageid? is that the id from Page?

If so and this assumes id in the Content table is an identity

insert into DB2.dbo.Page (id)
select id from DB1.dbo.pages

insert into DB2.dbo.Content(pageid, title, content)
select id, title, content from DB1.dbo.pages

Still a little puzzled by this design
