If you need to copy data from one table (table_a) into another table (table_b) using pgsql. There are 2 methods on how to do this. Method 1 NOTE: If you are using this method table_b should not yet exist. If you want an exact duplicate without indexing or relying on objects use this. SELECT * INTO table_b FROM table_a Method 2 NOTE: This method will work if table_b already exist. This method uses a subselect inside the INSERT statement INSERT INTO table_b ( SELECT * FROM table_a WHERE condition );
