Answer 2

All the above mentioned answers will almost fullfill the purpose. However, You need to drop the temp table after all the operation on it. You can follow-

INSERT INTO #TempTable (ID, Date, Name) SELECT id, date, name FROM physical_table;

IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb.dbo.#TempTable') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE #TempTable;

Answer 3

INSERT INTO #TempTable (ID, Date, Name) 
SELECT id, date, name 
FROM physical_table

Answer 4

The right query:

drop table #tmp_table

select new_acc_no, count(new_acc_no) as count1
into #tmp_table
from table
where unit_id = '0007' 
group by unit_id, new_acc_no
having count(new_acc_no) > 1

Answer 5

To insert all data from all columns, just use this:

SELECT * INTO #TempTable
FROM OriginalTable

Don't forget to DROP the temporary table after you have finished with it and before you try creating it again:

DROP TABLE #TempTable

Answer 6

After you create the temp table you would just do a normal INSERT INTO () SELECT FROM

INSERT INTO #TempTable (id, Date, Name)
SELECT t.id, t.Date, t.Name
FROM yourTable t
