    Hello

    I write code below and I use getdate() to get date

    declare @ID int

    DECLARE BCursor CURSOR FOR

    SELECT ID

    from exhibitor.mainTable

    OPEN BCursor

    FETCH NEXT FROM BCursor

    into @ID

    WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS =0

    BEGIN

    insert into exhibitor.dbo.blgBelongs(OwnerTable,OwnerID,Table1,Table1ID,Table2,Table2ID,TypeID,Enabled,Pro,blgid,LastUpdate)

    values (0,2,20,@ID,12,560,80,1,1000,11,[highlight=#ffff11]2013-11-26 12:20:30.560[/highlight])

    FETCH NEXT FROM BCursor

    into @ID

    end

    CLOSE BCursor

    DEALLOCATE BCursor

    I have this error

    Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 11

    Incorrect syntax near '22'.

    Could you help me how can I solve it?

    Put the date in single quotes

    Also, there is absolutely no need for a cursor here. You can turn this whole looping thing into a single insert statement like this.

    insert into exhibitor.dbo.blgBelongs(OwnerTable,OwnerID,Table1,Table1ID,Table2,Table2ID,TypeID,Enabled,Pro,blgid,LastUpdate)

    select 0,2,20,ID,12,560,80,1,1000,11, '2013-11-26 12:20:30.560'

    from exhibitor.mainTable
