Hi there,

Here is the scenario:
tableA has columns of SalesID, SalesDate, CustomerName
tableB has columns of CustomerID, CustomerName
Now I need to insert tableA to tableC with columns as:
SalesID, SalesDate, CustomerID

How should I do this? Thanks in advance.

[code]
insert into tableC
select a.SalesID, a.SalesDate,b.CustomerID
from tableA a
inner join tableB b
ON b.CustomerName = a.CustomerName
[/code]

Why do you need a seperate table for this as you can show it in SELECT statement or create a view based on it?
