I am trying to send the results of a query into a table. The sql statement is as follws.

Select OL_ID, OL_NAME into BestSellers from Orders;

where BestSellers is the name of the temporary table. I have not created the table BestSellers before. Do we need to create a table before we can insert data into it or can we send the data from a query result into a temporary table. Can anyone help me on this. Any help is highly appreciated.

Hi,

If You want to create a table and insert records in one step then you should

create table BestSellers as (select OL_ID, OL_NAME from orders);

Do the following way to insert records into
your temporary table.

Step 1,
CREATE GLOBAL TEMPORARY TABLE BestSellers
(OL_ID VARCHAR2(15), OL_NAME VARCHAR2(35))

Step 2,
Select OL_ID, OL_NAME into BestSellers from Orders
