for a in select * from temp_rslt
loop
insert into final_rslt select row(a.*);
end loop;
I want to do something like the above. I don't want to have to name each
'a.' variable.
Is it possible?
TIA
Mike

by the way, the row structure of temp_rslt and final_rslt are identical.

Thanks David.
Thomas, Yes, in my example the loop is not necessary, but in my real
application it is. :-) Thanks.

No need for a loop:
insert into final_rsl
select *
from tmp_rslt;
This assumes that both table define the columns in the exact same order
