SQL Server Copying tables from one database to another -


i have 2 databases, 1 called natalie_playground , 1 called livedb. since want practice insert, update things, want copy of tables livedb natalie_playground.

the tables want copy called: customers, computers, cellphones, prices

what tried (using ssms) right click on table there no copy in there!

assuming have 2 databases, example , b:

  • if target table not exists, following script create (i not recommend way):

    select table_a.field_1, table_a.field_2,......, table_a.field_n  copy_table_here   a.dbo.table_from_a table_a 
  • if target table exists, then:

     insert table_target   select table_a.field_1, table_a.field_2,......, table_a.field_n    a.dbo.table_from_a table_a 

note: if want learn , practice this, can use previous scripts, if want copy complete structure , data database another, should use, "backup , restore database" or, "generate script database data" , run database.
