There is no visible reason to me why this is failing. I've done this a thousand times before.

I have a table 'trafficwarrantdata'. I need to duplicate that table AND it's data into a new table 'trafficforarrest'. Simple enough?


Insert into dbo.trafficforarrest (col1, col2, col3)
Select
col1,
col2,
col3
FROM Douglasconversion.dbo.trafficwarrantdata

The !@#!!! error keeps reporting "Invalid Object Name dbo.trafficforarrest"

I've done the exact same process countless times before.

select columns into notExistingTable from sourceTable

No, you're never too old to Yak'n'Roll if you're too young to die.

goddamn this syntax checking in SSMS. I've had it mapped out that way and it was so riddled with the damn red squiggly lines that it was causing me to see red and i didn't even bother executing it.
