SQL Server 'select * into' versus 'insert into ..select *

Question

Say table1 and table2 already exist, is there any difference between these queries

query1 :-

select * into table1 from tabl         


        

Answer 1

In below query, table1 will be created or an error will be thrown if it already exists

select * into table1 from table2 where 1=1

In below query, the table table1 must exist before running the command

insert into table1 select * from table2
