asked
Insert 1000 rows in three tables at the same time
Well, that depends. The data you are inserting, is it in an existing table? or flat file? CSV? Do you really mean "exactly at the same time" or can it be done in the same transaction?
Hi @JohnM, thank you. The insert would be on an existing table, and by ¨at the same time¨ I mean in the same transaction
Where is the data that you are inserting coming from? You can do a simple
INSERT dbo.Table1 (id, firstname, lastnam) SELECT id, firstname, lastname from dbo.Table2;
if the data is another table. If you need to randomly generate data, that's a different story
