Of course. A database would be pretty useless if you could not retrieve
partial information from it. :)

Your database contains tables, and these tables may be SELECTED from. You
can also INSERT information into a table based on what you have SELECTed
from another table:

<URL: http://www.mysql.com/doc/I/N/INSERT_SELECT.html >

So, what you need is probably something like this:

INSERT INTO newdatabase.table1 SELECT * from olddatabase.table1 WHERE ...

This must be repeated for all your tables.
