SQL - Creating a Table from an Existing Table


A copy of an existing table can be created using a combination of the CREATE TABLE statement and the
SELECT statement. The new table has the same column definitions. All columns or specific columns can be
selected. When you will create a new table using the existing table, the new table would be populated using the
existing values in the old table.
Syntax
The basic syntax for creating a table from another table is as follows:
SELECT column1, column2 ....
INTO [dbo].[new]
FROM [dbo].[old]
