How to insert table values from one database to another database?

I want a query to insert records from one table to another table in a different database if the destination table already exists, it should append the records at the end of the table.

How about this:

USE TargetDatabase
GO

INSERT INTO dbo.TargetTable(field1, field2, field3)
   SELECT field1, field2, field3
     FROM SourceDatabase.dbo.SourceTable
     WHERE (some condition)

How to insert table values from one server/database to another database?

1 Creating Linked Servers {if needs} (SQL server 2008 R2 - 2012) http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff772782.aspx#SSMSProcedure

2 configure the linked server to use Credentials a) http://technet.microsoft.com/es-es/library/ms189811(v=sql.105).aspx

EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin 'NAMEOFLINKEDSERVER', 'false', null, 'REMOTEUSERNAME', 'REMOTEUSERPASSWORD'

-- CHECK SERVERS

SELECT * FROM sys.servers

-- TEST LINKED SERVERS

EXEC sp_testlinkedserver N'NAMEOFLINKEDSERVER'

---

INSERT INTO NEW LOCAL TABLE

SELECT * INTO NEWTABLE
FROM [LINKEDSERVER\INSTANCE].remoteDATABASE.remoteSCHEMA.remoteTABLE

OR

INSERT AS NEW VALUES IN REMOTE TABLE

INSERT
INTO    [LINKEDSERVER\INSTANCE].remoteDATABASE.remoteSCHEMA.remoteTABLE
SELECT  *
FROM    localTABLE

INSERT AS NEW LOCAL TABLE VALUES

INSERT
INTO    localTABLE
SELECT  *
FROM    [LINKEDSERVER\INSTANCE].remoteDATABASE.remoteSCHEMA.remoteTABLE

    --Code for same server
USE [mydb1]
GO

INSERT INTO dbo.mytable1 (
    column1
    ,column2
    ,column3
    ,column4
    )
SELECT column1
    ,column2
    ,column3
    ,column4
FROM [mydb2].dbo.mytable2 --WHERE any condition

/*
steps-
    1-  [mydb1] means our opend connection database 
    2-  mytable1 the table in mydb1 database where we want insert record
    3-  mydb2 another database.
    4-  mytable2 is database table where u fetch record from it. 
*/

--Code for different server
        USE [mydb1]

    SELECT *
    INTO mytable1
    FROM OPENDATASOURCE (
            'SQLNCLI'
            ,'Data Source=XXX.XX.XX.XXX;Initial Catalog=mydb2;User ID=XXX;Password=XXXX'
            ).[mydb2].dbo.mytable2

        /*  steps - 
            1-  [mydb1] means our opend connection database 
            2-  mytable1 means create copy table in mydb1 database where we want 
                insert record
            3-  XXX.XX.XX.XXX - another server name.
            4-  mydb2 another server database.
            5-  write User id and Password of another server credential
            6-  mytable2 is another server table where u fetch record from it. */

Here's a quick and easy method:

CREATE TABLE database1.employees
AS
SELECT * FROM database2.employees;

You can try

Insert into your_table_in_db1 select * from your_table_in_db2@db2SID 

db2SID is the sid of other DB. It will be present in tnsnames.ora file

INSERT
INTO    remotedblink.remotedatabase.remoteschema.remotetable
SELECT  *
FROM    mytable

There is no such thing as "the end of the table" in relational databases.

Just Do it.....

( It will create same table structure as from table as to table with same data )

 create table toDatabaseName.toTableName as select * from fromDatabaseName.fromTableName;

Mostly we need this type of query in migration script

INSERT INTO  db1.table1(col1,col2,col3,col4)
SELECT col5,col6,col7,col8
  FROM db1.table2

In this query column count must be same in both table

If both the tables have the same schema then use this query: insert into database_name.table_name select * from new_database_name.new_table_name where='condition'

Replace database_name with the name of your 1st database and table_name with the name of table you want to copy from also replace new_database_name with the name of your other database where you wanna copy and new_table_name is the name of the table.

For SQL Server, you can use tool Import Data from another Database, It's easier to configuration mapping columns.
