I may have just made this work in my simple testing, unless someone can tell me a better, way, this is what I came up with: insert into images (user_id, image_title, image_filename, image_url, type, added) select user_id, image_title, image_filename, image_url, '4', NOW() from newsletter_images where user_id = '123'; So basically, since I need to select the SAME fields I am inserting, just select the 2 that I need to change the data in, ignore what they may or may not have, and drop in hard values in the select statement. -- ------------------------------------------------------------- Scott Haneda Tel: 415.898.2602 http://www.newgeo.com Fax: 313.557.5052 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Novato, CA U.S.A. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
