T-SQL Insert into table without having to specify every column

Question

In our db there is a table that has a little over 80 columns. It has a primary key and Identity insert is turned on. I\'m looking for a way to insert into this table every colum

Answer 1

Really, honestly it takes ten seconds or less to pull all of the columns over from the object browser and then delete the identity column from the list. It is a bad idea to use select * for anything but quick ad hoc query.
