Solution 1

This is the way I do it:

SELECT * INTO NewTable FROM OldTable

I don't know why have ampersands in your sql, nor why you're using IN.

hello
you can also use SQLBULKCOPY for this with help of given code, but first u have to create both the tables i.e. source table and destination table

//setting the connection string
string connection = "Data Source=.;Initial Catalog=master;Integrated Security=True";

            SqlConnection myconnect = new SqlConnection(connection);
            myconnect.Open(); //open the connection
            SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("select * from sourcetable", myconnect);
            SqlDataReader dr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
//new connection specification
            SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(connection);
            con.Open();
            SqlBulkCopy bulk = new SqlBulkCopy(con);
//name of the destination table where u wana copy ur data
            bulk.DestinationTableName = "desti"; 
            try
            {
                bulk.WriteToServer(dr);
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                MessageBox.Show("Some error");
            }
            finally
            {
                dr.Close();
            }
            myconnect.Close();


            MessageBox.Show("Record Copied");
