Creating Tables Using SELECT

Answer Posted / mohammadali.info

*SELECT...INTO essentially combines CREATE TABLE and SELECT in a single statement. The AS clause can be used to change the column labels and thus control the column names in the new table. The other commands in the figure show the new table's structure and contents.

-SELECT firstname, lastname, city, state
INTO newfriend
FROM friend;

-SELECT...INTO tablename can also be written as CREATE TABLE tablename AS SELECT.... The preceding query can then be rewritten as
CREATE TABLE newfriend AS SELECT firstname, lastname, city, state FROM friend.
