SQL COPY TABLE Command

To selectively copy data from one table to another. It may be used as backup.

Code:

CREATE TABLE Department2 SELECT * FROM Department

You can also add where clause to the selection part :

Code:

CREATE TABLE Department2 SELECT * FROM Department where DeptId=3

If you want to copy only the table structure use following :

Code:

create table d1 like Department

You can create table only if it is not exist

Code:

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS Department3 SELECT * FROM Department WHERE Dept='2'
