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?



INSERT INTO TABLE t1 (col1,col2) SELECT stuff, 100 FROM t2;


Thanks

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;
