Insert multiple rows into single column

Question

I'm new to SQL, (using SQL 2008 R2) and I am having trouble inserting multiple rows into a single column.

I have a table named Data and this is what I am trying

INSERT INTO Data ( Col1 ) VALUES ('Hello', 'World') 

That code was taken from this question, but it, like many other examples I have found on the web uses 2 columns, I just want to use 1. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

Answer 1

to insert values for a particular column with other columns remain same:-

INSERT INTO `table_name`(col1,col2,col3)    VALUES (1,'val1',0),(1,'val2',0),(1,'val3',0) 

Answer 2

To insert into only one column, use only one piece of data:

INSERT INTO Data ( Col1 ) VALUES ('Hello World'); 

Alternatively, to insert multiple records, separate the inserts:

INSERT INTO Data ( Col1 ) VALUES ('Hello'), ('World');
