You can copy data from one table to another in SQL using the INSERT INTO
statement.
Here's a brief explanation of how to do it:
1.Specify the Target Table:
INSERT INTO target_table (column1, column2, ...)
Begin by specifying the target table where you want to copy the data. You should also list the columns into which you want to insert the data.
2.Select Data from the Source Table:
SELECT source_column1, source_column2, ... FROM source_table WHERE condition; -- Optional
After specifying the target table, use a
SELECT
statement to retrieve the data you want to copy from the source table. You can apply conditions to filter the data if needed.3.Combine the Statements:
INSERT INTO target_table (column1, column2, ...) SELECT source_column1, source_column2, ... FROM source_table WHERE condition; -- Optional
Combine the
INSERT INTO
statement with theSELECT
statement to insert the selected data into the target table.
This SQL command will copy data from the source_table
into the specified columns of the target_table
. Ensure that the column types and data match between the source and target tables. Make sure you have the necessary permissions to perform this operation and that you have backed up your data, especially if you're working with important information.
