Dear All,
I can use insert with 'select' if I do this
INSERT INTO TABLE t1 (col1) SELECT stuff FROM t2;
But I want to insert more than one thing into the table, e.g.
INSERT INTO TABLE t1 (col1,col2) SELECT stuff FROM t2 , 100;
Any ideas on how I would achieve this?
Thanks
Colin

The SELECT clause can be any ordinary SELECT clause, that can return multiple columns from a table. So for example:
INSERT INTO table (col1, col2) SELECT col1, col2 from table2;
Also, just like standard SELECT statements, the following would also work:
INSERT INTO table (col1, col2) SELECT col1, 100 FROM table2;
