Re: Insert based in a select

[Phillip Smith <phillip(dot)smith(at)weatherbeeta(dot)com(dot)au>]

INSERT INTO second_table (master_id) SELECT id FROM master_table ORDER BY id;

Was it important to you that the id and master id in the second table match up? ie, 1 and 10, 2 and 20, 3 and 30 - not 1 and 30, 2 and 10, 3 and 20 etc...
