Answer 1

You need to name columns in select in order to insert them into new table:

select 'Ordinary' Ordinary, pincode , year ( Date_val ) Year, MONTH ( Date_val ) Month, (100 - cast ( Arr_8 as int )/ cast ( Arr_5 as int )* 100 ) Something
into mutant

from ( select * from arrow_29june_2010 union all

select * from arrow_dtp_upg_2009 ) A

where cast ( arr_5 as int )<> 0

EDIT: forgot to alias ‘Ordinary’
