Copy data into another table

If both tables are truly the same schema:

INSERT INTO newTable
SELECT * FROM oldTable

Otherwise, you'll have to specify the column names (the column list for newTable is optional if you are specifying a value for all columns and selecting columns in the same order as newTable's schema):

INSERT INTO newTable (col1, col2, col3)
SELECT column1, column2, column3
FROM oldTable

Simple way if new table does not exist and you want to make a copy of old table with everything then following works in SQL Server.

SELECT * INTO NewTable FROM OldTable

This is the proper way to do it:

INSERT INTO destinationTable
SELECT * FROM sourceTable

INSERT INTO table1 (col1, col2, col3)
SELECT column1, column2, column3
FROM table2                                        

Try this:

INSERT INTO MyTable1 (Col1, Col2, Col4)
   SELECT Col1, Col2, Col3 FROM MyTable2
