Hi Fred,
 thanks a million. it works...
I write a following code and it works like a magic........


RoyaltyReportFiles.connection.insert("insert into royalty_reports 
(artist_name, album_name, product_type, currency, status, upc, isrc, 
track_title, revenue, units, file_id, local_revenue) select artist_name, 
album_name, product_type, currency, status, upc, isrc, track_title, 
revenue, units, file_id, local_revenue
from temp_royalty_reports where id>=336401")

it saves 50 data from temp_royalty_reports to royalty_reports.

Fred i want to know one more thing is it good practise for inserting 
thousands of data from one table to another?
waiting for your reply...


Salil
