  Hi All,

  I have the following table

  Table A

  Col1

  0118F

  0118R

  5678

  0118F

  0118R

  5678

  5678

  5678

  0118F

  0118R

  I want to insert only distinct values of Col1 from table A to another table

  Insert into TableB

  (

  UserName, ProjectName, processdate, Recordprocess, Comments, RecordProcessExt

  )

  values(@UserName, 'Test Project', getDate(), distinct Col1 from Table1, 'Test Comments', distinct col1+ 'TR' from TableA)

  How can I accomplish the above. I need to insert distinct column from TableA to RecordProcess and col1+'Tr' to recordprocessExt.I can do it with cursor. I don't know any other way.

  Also, there are other columns in Table A. I am using sql server 2005.

  any help will be appreciated.
