Data from one table to another table

Hi

I’m trying to copy all the Data from one table to another table in the same database using the following:

INSERT INTO new_tableone (row1, row2)
SELECT row1, row2 FROM tableone

Now I’m not certain that this is the best way to do it but I also get the error message

“Duplicate entry 'sometext' for key 1”

This is not a links database and “new_tableone” is empty

Regards

minesite
