Hello,I would like to store records of a table into another table.
INSERT INTO Tab2 (Spalte1,Spalte2)...) SELECT Spalte1,Spalte2,... FROM Tab1
However all records always are inserted in Tab2 from Tab1. I would like to select the records in the Tab1 previously and then I would like to insert only the selected records into the Tab2.
Which possibilities are there for it? Maybe you have a few suggestions.
Ciao Frank

In your query, use the following modification :
INSERT INTO Tab2 (Spalte1,Spalte2)...) SELECT Spalte1,Spalte2,... FROM Tab1 <b>WHERE ....</b>
Then, your select of Tab1 will be limited to your filter, and therefore only the selected rows from Tab1 will be inserted into tab2.
Hope it helps.
