I am using a insert statement like:

INSERT INTO newtable
SELECT field1, field2 FROM anothertable

newtable structure is: serial, varchar, varchar

What syntax do I use to insert the serial field?   Ive tried something
like:

Try :

INSERT INTO newtable (col1, col2) SELECT field1, field2 FROM anothertable

col1, col2 being the names of your columns that you want to put field1 and field2 into...

The serial will take care of itself.
