| Hello I'm having issues inserting data in an existing table. I do this:SELECT *into itemsNRSHFROM itemsWHERE (ReleaseDate = '06/11/2013') AND (StockQty > 0)That will create a table with the data I want, but if the table is already there it won't. What do I need to try? When I tried:into into itemsNRSHSELECT *FROM itemsWHERE (ReleaseDate = '06/11/2013') AND (StockQty > 0)It says no column list was used. So what am I doing wrong? |

Are you sure this was the error? Can you copy/paste the exact error thrown by the SQL server?CheersMIK |

| You are correct the select * into will create the table and I assume you ment INSERT INTO itemsNRSH select *?Are you executing the second query after the first?djj |

| Yep it was annoyed that I didn't have the columns mapped. I re did it with the columns in itemsNRSH and items, and it worked. |
