SELECT INTO using Oracle

If NEW_TABLE already exists then ...

insert into new_table 
select * from old_table
/

If you want to create NEW_TABLE based on the records in OLD_TABLE ...

create table new_table as 
select * from old_table
/

If the purpose is to create a new but empty table then use a WHERE clause with a condition which can never be true:

create table new_table as 
select * from old_table
where 1 = 2
/

Remember that CREATE TABLE ... AS SELECT creates only a table with the same projection as the source table. The new table does not have any constraints, triggers or indexes which the original table might have. Those still have to be added manually (if they are required).

select into is used in pl/sql to set a variable to field values. Instead, use

create table new_table as select * from old_table

Use:

create table new_table_name 
as
select column_name,[more columns] from Existed_table;

Example:

create table dept
as
select empno, ename from emp;

If the table already exists:

insert into new_tablename select columns_list from Existed_table;

Try using this below statement instead of using select into in oracle:

select * from(select * from table1) table2 ;
