Answer 1

This should work. You don't need to worry about the identify field in Table2.

INSERT INTO Table2
 (client_last_name, client_first_name, taskDescription, category)
 (SELECT clientLastName, clientFirstName, incidentDescription, category
  FROM Table1
  WHERE info_field IS NOT NULL)

Answer 2

Member_ID nvarchar(255) primary key,
Name nvarchar(255),
Address nvarchar(255)
)
insert into Member(Member_ID,Name,Address) (select m.Member_Id,m.Name,m.Address from library_Member m WHERE Member_Id IS NOT NULL)
