Copy one table data to another using PHP.

To copy one MySQL table data in another table MYSQL  query is to be used. To copy the data from one table to another table, you have to perform the query of MYSQL  in such a way that your problem is solved. In the query of MYSQL, you have to select the data from a table and You have to copy (insert) the other table. To copy the data table of the Msql table, you have to do the following query to MYSQL.

INSERT INTO table 2 

SELECT * FROM  table 1  WHERE ...

Answer 2

Copy one table data into another table is pretty simple using the MYSQL query. First of all, understand the thing because you want to select the data and insert into another MYSQL database table using PHP. It's not a big deal, you can modify query according to your need. 

Use the below query to insert and select data. 

INSERT INTO table2

SELECT * FROM  table1 ; 

The table is another table in which you want to insert the data from table one in PHP. The table1 specifies the table from which you want to select data and paste (insert) data into another table.

You can use Where clause with the select query. 

 INSERT INTO table2

SELECT * FROM  table1 WHERE  ;

 WHERE clause helps to select the specific id-data or other. You can change according to your need.

If you want to insert data from another table, you have to check and specify the columns too. The MYSQL database table layouts can be different, you should understand this concept and specify the columns (fields ) 

INSERT INTO table2(column1, column1, column1)
SELECT column5, column7, column8 FROM table1 WHERE id = 1
