Inserting records using subqueries
In this page, we are discussing the inserting rows of another table using subquery.
Example:
Sample table: agent1
Sample table: agents
To insert all records into 'agent1' table from 'agents' table, the following SQL statement can be used:
SQL Code:
INSERT INTO agent1
SELECT * FROM agents;
Inserting records using subqueries with where clause
In this page we are discussing, how to insert rows using INSERT INTO statement, where rows are results of a subquery, made up of SQL SELECT statement with WHERE clause.
Example:
Sample table: agent1
Sample table: agents
To insert records into 'agent1' table from 'agents' table with the following condition -
1. 'working_area' of 'agents' table must be 'London',
the following SQL statement can be used:
SQL Code:
INSERT INTO agent1
SELECT * FROM agents
WHERE working_area="London";
SQL inserting records using subqueries with any operator
In the following we are going to discuss, how an ANY operator can participate in an INSERT INTO statement.
Example:
Sample table: agent1
Sample table: agents
Sample table: customer
To insert records into 'agent1' table from 'agents' table with the following conditions -
1. 'agent_code' of 'agents' table must be any 'agent_code' from 'customer' table which satisfies the condition bellow :
2. 'cust_country' of customer table must be 'UK',
the following SQL statement can be used:
SQL Code:
INSERT INTO agent1
SELECT * FROM agents
WHERE agent_code=ANY(
SELECT agent_code FROM customer
WHERE cust_country="UK");
SQL insert using subqueries with any operator and group by
In the following we are going to discuss, how an ANY operator with GROUP BY clause can participate in an INSERT INTO statement.
Example:
Sample table: agent1
Sample table: agents
Sample table: customer
Sample table: orders
To insert records into 'agent1' table from 'agents' table with the following conditions -
'agent_code' of agents table must be any 'agent_code' from 'customer' table which satisfies the condition bellow :
'agent_code' of customer table must be any 'agent_code' from 'orders'
table which satisfies the condition bellow :
same 'agent_code' of 'customer' table should come in a group,
'advance_amount' of 'orders' table must be more than 600,
the following SQL statement can be used:
SQL Code:
INSERT INTO agent1
SELECT * FROM agents
WHERE agent_code=ANY(
SELECT agent_code FROM customer
WHERE agent_code =ANY(
SELECT agent_code FROM orders
WHERE advance_amount>600)
GROUP BY agent_code);

SQL: Tips of the Day
SQL Server SELECT into existing table.
INSERT INTO dbo.TABLETWO SELECT col1, col2 FROM dbo.TABLEONE WHERE col3 LIKE @search_key
This assumes there's only two columns in dbo.TABLETWO - you need to specify the columns otherwise:
INSERT INTO dbo.TABLETWO (col1, col2) SELECT col1, col2 FROM dbo.TABLEONE WHERE col3 LIKE @search_key
