sql insert into table from select without duplicates (need more then a DISTINCT)

Question

I am selecting multiple rows and inserting them into another table. I want to make sure that it doesn\'t already exists in the table I am inserting multiple rows into.

There are a few MSDN articles out there about this, but by far this one is the best:

They made it real easy to implement and my problem is now fixed. Also the GUI is ugly, but you actually can set minute intervals without using the command line in windows 2003.
