Combining select and insert will be useful if i am inserting from same
table. Will this work even with inserting three values when one is a
constant (something like 12), other one is variable from one table and third
one is variable from some other table. Any possible syntax for that? will
the following thing work

insert into <target table> (a,b,c) select 1,b from <table1> where
<condition>, c from <table2> where <condition>;

OR how i can make such a query to work
