The following is the syntax:. Note: Here , make sure that the number of columns should match with the number of values. You can exclude the identity column of a table, or a default constraint is specified on any of the columns of the table.
In upcoming articles, I will explain the default constraints and identity columns. Below is the definition of the tblemployees table. Let me show various use cases of the insert query. In this article, I am going to cover the following:. Suppose I want to insert the first name and last name of the employee.
Run the following query:. Execute the following query:. As you can see in the above screenshot of the output, the row has been inserted successfully, and the values of their corresponding columns are also inserted correctly.
Type conversion of an expression expr that provides a column value might occur if the expression data type does not match the column data type. Conversion of a given value can result in different inserted values depending on the column type. For example, inserting the string ' The value stored in the INT and YEAR columns is because the string-to-number conversion looks only at as much of the initial part of the string as may be considered a valid integer or year.
An expression expr can refer to any column that was set earlier in a value list. For example, you can do this because the value for col2 refers to col1 , which has previously been assigned:. But the following is not legal, because the value for col1 refers to col2 , which is assigned after col1 :.
To do this, include multiple lists of comma-separated column values, with lists enclosed within parentheses and separated by commas. Each values list must contain exactly as many values as are to be inserted per row. The following statement is invalid because it contains one list of nine values, rather than three lists of three values each:. Neither implies anything about the number of values lists, nor about the number of values per list. Either may be used whether there is a single values list or multiple lists, and regardless of the number of values per list.
In this case, each value list must be contained within a ROW row constructor , like this:. See Section TABLE , the statement returns an information string in this format:. Records indicates the number of rows processed by the statement.
This is not necessarily the number of rows actually inserted because Duplicates can be nonzero. Duplicates indicates the number of rows that could not be inserted because they would duplicate some existing unique index value. Warnings indicates the number of attempts to insert column values that were problematic in some way. Warnings can occur under any of the following conditions:. Instead, the statement fails with an error. Report a Bug. Previous Prev. Next Continue. Home Testing Expand child menu Expand.

Somnath Muluk Somnath Muluk The right answer to this question will be sth like this: a. If you want to CLONE a record from SAME table, just remember you cann't select from table to which you are inserting therefore create temporary table xtable weight int 11 , desiredWeight int 11 ; insert into xtable weight, desiredWeight select weight, desiredWeight from Users where [condition] insert into Users weight, desiredWeight select weight , desiredWeight from xtable; I think this pretty covers most of the scenarios.

User wants to insert values with condition and not update exiting records. The answer is definitively no. Marc Alff Marc Alff 7, 28 28 silver badges 58 58 bronze badges.
