MySQL Insert Where query

Question

What\'s wrong with this query:

INSERT INTO Users( weight, desiredWeight ) VALUES ( 160, 145 ) WHERE id = 1;

It works without the WHE

Answer 1

It depends on the situation INSERT can actually have a where clause.

For example if you are matching values from a form.

Consider INSERT INTO Users(name,email,weight, desiredWeight) VALUES (fred,bb@yy.com,160,145) WHERE name != fred AND email != bb@yy.com

Makes sense doesn't it?
