SELECT * INTO #TempTable 
FROM SampleTable

SELECT * FROM #TempTable
DROP TABLE #TempTable

Answer 2

Fastest way to do this is using "SELECT INTO" command e.g.

SELECT * INTO #TempTableName
FROM....

This will create a new table, you don't have to create it in advance.

Try this:

SELECT *
INTO #Temp
FROM 
(select * from tblorders where busidate ='2016-11-24' and locationID=12
) as X

Please use alias with x so it will not failed the script and result.

Answer 4

You can do that like this:

INSERT INTO myTable (colum1, column2)
SELECT column1, column2 FROM OtherTable;

Just make sure the columns are matching, both in number as in datatype.

Answer 6

SQL Server R2 2008 needs the AS clause as follows:

SELECT * 
INTO #temp
FROM (
    SELECT col1, col2
    FROM table1
) AS x

The query failed without the AS x at the end.

EDIT

It's also needed when using SS2016, had to add as t to the end.

 Select * into #result from (SELECT * FROM  #temp where [id] = @id) as t //<-- as t
