Subject: APPEND INTO?
Date: Thu, 01 Dec 2005 09:23:06 -0500
Message-ID: <438F074A.3040004@noaa.gov> (raw)

I want to SELECT INTO mytable WHERE (criteria are met), except that I 
want to APPEND into an existing table the rows that are selected, 
instead of creating a new table (which SELECT INTO will do).  How can 
this be done?

(Is this what the "FOR UPDATE OF tablename" clause is for?)
