One more 'column' you mean, not 'row'. Yes, this is possible, though
a bit more difficult - you cannot use '*' in the select statement, rather
something like this..
If table1 has 3 columns - name, birthdate, salary - then you can do:
INSERT INTO table2 SELECT '$date', name, birthdate, salary FROM table1
WHERE username='$uname';
You can actually place any constant value in a SELECT statement - that's
the idea behind the above insert-from-select.
G'luck,
