RE: Copying one table to another

2002-11-14 Thread Andrew Braithwaite
Ed,

You could use the insert .. select syntax.

See: http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/INSERT_SELECT.html

Cheers,

Andrew

Subject: Copying one table to another



Say I have 2 tables with the exact same formatting (fields, values, etc.) Is
there an easy way to dump the contents of one table to the other in SQL
rather than outputting the one to a .txt or .sql and inputing it into the
other table?

Thanks,

Ed

Re: Copying a Table

2002-09-28 Thread Insanely Great

Greetings...

It is possible. Say for eg. If you want to copy the structure and data of
the db table in mysql table. you can use the following statement -

create table `db_copy` ( primary key ( Host, Db, User ) ) select * from `db`

If you cant to copy only the structure then you can use a query like this -

create table `db_copy` ( primary key ( Host, Db, User ) ) select * from `db`
where 1 = 0

Hope It helps

RE: Copying a table structure with constraints intact

2002-08-02 Thread Mike Hillyer

Hi There;

I have some template tables in my SQL database that I was hoping to copy to
make
the production tables, but I have noticed that the constraints do not copy
when I create the production table using a select statement. Dows anyone
know of a way to copy the table and have the constraints copy with the
structure?

Mike
