Preserving ORDER BY in SELECT INTO

Question

I have a T-SQL query that takes data from one table and copies it into a new table but only rows meeting a certain condition:

SELECT VibeFGEvents.* 
INTO Vib         


        

Answer 1

Try using INSERT INTO instead of SELECT INTO

INSERT INTO VibeFGEventsAfterStudyStart 
SELECT VibeFGEvents.* 
FROM VibeFGEvents
LEFT OUTER JOIN VibeFGEventsStudyStart
ON 
    CHARINDEX(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(logName, 'MyVibe ', ''), ' new laptop', ''), ' old laptop', ''), excelFilename) > 0
    AND VibeFGEventsStudyStart.MIN_TitleInstID <= VibeFGEvents.TitleInstID
    AND VibeFGEventsStudyStart.MIN_WinInstId <= VibeFGEvents.WndInstID
WHERE VibeFGEventsStudyStart.excelFilename IS NOT NULL
ORDER BY VibeFGEvents.id`
