Insert Data Into Temp Table with Query

People also ask

How do I insert SELECT query results into a temp table in SQL?

INSERT INTO SELECT statement reads data from one table and inserts it into an existing table. Such as, if we want to copy the Location table data into a temp table using the INSERT INTO SELECT statement, we have to specify the temporary table explicitly and then insert the data.

How do you insert the result of a query into a table?

To create an Insert Results queryFrom the Query Designer menu, point to Change Type, and then click Insert Results. In the Choose Target Table for Insert Results Dialog Box, select the table to copy rows to (the destination table).


SELECT *
INTO #Temp
FROM

  (SELECT
     Received,
     Total,
     Answer,
     (CASE WHEN application LIKE '%STUFF%' THEN 'MORESTUFF' END) AS application
   FROM
     FirstTable
   WHERE
     Recieved = 1 AND
     application = 'MORESTUFF'
   GROUP BY
     CASE WHEN application LIKE '%STUFF%' THEN 'MORESTUFF' END) data
WHERE
  application LIKE
    isNull(
      '%MORESTUFF%',
      '%')

SQL Server R2 2008 needs the AS clause as follows:

SELECT * 
INTO #temp
FROM (
    SELECT col1, col2
    FROM table1
) AS x

The query failed without the AS x at the end.


EDIT

It's also needed when using SS2016, had to add as t to the end.

 Select * into #result from (SELECT * FROM  #temp where [id] = @id) as t //<-- as t

Fastest way to do this is using "SELECT INTO" command e.g.

SELECT * INTO #TempTableName
FROM....

This will create a new table, you don't have to create it in advance.


Personally, I needed a little hand holding figuring out how to use this and it is really, awesome.

IF(OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#TEMP') IS NOT NULL) BEGIN DROP TABLE #TEMP END
        SELECT *
            INTO #TEMP
            FROM (
            The query you want to use many times
            ) AS X

SELECT * FROM #TEMP WHERE THIS = THAT
SELECT * FROM #TEMP WHERE THIS <> THAT
SELECT COL1,COL3 FROM #TEMP WHERE THIS > THAT

DROP TABLE #TEMP

You can do that like this:

INSERT INTO myTable (colum1, column2)
SELECT column1, column2 FROM OtherTable;

Just make sure the columns are matching, both in number as in datatype.


Try this:

SELECT *
INTO #Temp
FROM 
(select * from tblorders where busidate ='2016-11-24' and locationID=12
) as X

Please use alias with x so it will not failed the script and result.
