This may be a really basic SQL question, but I have seen a SQL INSERT statement without the clause INTO and I was wondering if that is some special case in SQL Server 2000 or 2008.
The INSERT statement look something like
INSERT <table_name>
(
column names
)
select *
from <another table>
where <condition>
Sorry, if this is super basic, but I just wanted to make sure.
Thanks!
The INTO is optional. It is required in ANSI sql but the MS/Sybase developers decided to make it optional.
