RE: [PHP-DB] MySQL Insert Select statement

That's how you do it. Hopefully you've figured it out already. ---John Holmes. -----Original Message----- From: dwalker [mailto:dwalker@healthyproductsplus.com] Sent: Saturday, October 19, 2002 7:51 PM To: professional php; php-db@lists.php.net; php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP-DB] MySQL Insert Select statement While reading the MySQL manual for INSERT SELECT, I was not able to determine how to include all 5 fields of one table into another table (containing 100 fields) into SPECIFIC data fields. Do I need to explicitly list all the fields within the table of 5 fields? If so, would the statement be: INSERT INTO Products (ProductName,Size,SuggestedRetailPrice,ProductCategory,ManufacturerName) SELECT(kalproduct.Product, kalproduct.size, kalproduct.SRP, kalproduct.Cat, kalproduct.manname) FROM kalproduct ; Thanking you in advance. P.S. I'd give it a try, but I'm trying to move 500 partial records into a table containing at least 2000 records -- didn't want to start from scratch.
