Ok, looking in my "SQL for Dummies" book I found I can get around this
using:

INSERT INTO CalcMethod ( ConfigurationID, Object, Attribute, Method,
Description )
         SELECT CAST(1 AS INTEGER), Object, Attribute, Method, Description FROM
CalcMethod

and casting 1 to an INTEGER.  Works fine when I just do the SELECT, so I
know LocalSQL/Paradox lets me do CASTing, but when I try the INSERT INTO
I now get "Capability not supported".  Does LocalSQL not allow me to use
INSERT INTO and SELECT in the same query?
