Hi Gene,
your way in correct!
And then there is the SQL way:
insert into YourCursor ;
(Field1, Field2, Field3, FieldX) ;
select Field1, Field2, Field3, FieldX ;
from thecursorname
or
insert into YourCursor ;
select * ;
from thecursorname
Make sure that the implicit and / or explicit fields lists do match.
