Question

I was wondering if someone can guide me as to how I can insert the output of a query into a table that I created on a different server from where I am running my query.

For example:

table is located on server1 called tbl1 in a database called database1.

the query that i am running is querying data located on server2.

for the insert command, would this work: server1.database1.tbl1

If you need more information please let me know.

Answer 1

As long as you can reach both servers, it should be easy enough:

 INSERT INTO server1.database1.dbo.tbl1(list of columns)
   SELECT
      (list of columns)
   FROM
      server2.database2.dbo.tbl2
   WHERE
      (some condition here)
