SQL Server SELECT into existing table

Question

SQL Server SELECT into existing table

I'm attempting to choose a few fields from one table and supplement them into an existing table from a stored procedure. Here is the thing that I am attempting:

SELECT col1, col2

INTO dbo.TableTwo 

FROM dbo.TableOne 

WHERE col3 LIKE @search_key

I think SELECT ... INTO ... is for temporary tables which is why I get an error that dbo.TableTwo already exists.

How can I insert multiple rows from dbo.TableOne into dbo.TableTwo?

select 

into existing table database..existingtable

from database..othertables....

If you have used select * into tablename from other tablenames already, next time, to append, you say select into existing table tablename from other tablenames

IF you want an identity column in the new table created with select into then it can be done as below.

SELECT 

 ID = IDENTITY(INT, 1, 1),

        name

INTO    table2

FROM table1
