>I need to move data from 1 table to another table. As there fields' name is different and so I cann't just use 'APPRND FROM TABLEA' to do this. I try to use INSERT BUT VFP6.0 do not support subquery like 'INSERT INTO TABLEB(CO_NAMEB, CO_ADDB) (SELE CO_NAMEA, CO_ADDA FROM TABLEA)' there is syntax error when i run the query. As the field name and table stru is different, it seems difficult for me. I know I can use program and process it record by record but I don't wish to do it as it need some time as I have a large number of records in table. I wish I can just use one statmenet to move data.

Hi Linda,

Unfortunatelly, foxpro doesn't support INSERT ... SELECT type of queries. You can acomplish your goal in a couple of ways

* Use select to rename fields
Select co_namea AS co_nameb, co_adda AS co_addb ;
  From tablea Into Cursor crsTemp
Select tableb
Append From (DBF("crsTemp"))

* Prosess record by record
Select tablea
Scan
  Insert Into tableb (co_nameb, co_addb) ;
              Values (tablea.co_namea, tablea.co_adda)
Endscan
