Question

I would like to do a query for inserting a value calculated starting upon another table.
I don’t want to use Temporary tables and I would like to do everything in one singel query.
It is possible?

I tried this one below but it doesn’t work.

Thanks

VALUES ( 
 '2010/01/01',
 'Thunder',
  SELECT SUM(aValue) FROM AnotherTable
)
