I want to use an Insert into Select statement in a datawindow but I get the following message:

Is there any way to do this?

Hi Raymond;

  For that type of DML statement, you would need to use PowerScript "inline" SQL.

OK that is what I thought. I was wondering if there is another way. Thanks!

What about using a Datawindow and setting the dwitemstatus (SetItemStatus) to New! or NewModified! ?

Hi Greg;

That would work but would be extremely slow compared to a "Select into...." DML command.
