Re: With CTE can use only SELECT (??)

[Glenn Gundermann <glenn.gundermann@xxxxxxxxx>]

Here is an example of an insert using a CTE.

insert into items

      (item_id, description, cost, price)

with Temp as (

<insert your CTE here>

)

select item_number, description, cost, price

  from temp

  where <condition>;

Yours truly,
