I have > 100 rows to add to a table using INSERT INTO statements. I want the

INSERT INTO people (person_nbr DEFAULT('people_person_nbr_seq'),lname,fname,job_title DEFAULT 'Contact',company_nbr,loc_nbr,direct_phone,cell_phone,email,active DEFAULT('true')) VALUES

Assuming 'people_person_nbr_seq' is the sequence attached to person_nbr and the other DEFAULTs are the column defaults then the syntax would be:

INSERT INTO people
(person_nbr, lname, fname, job_title, company_nbr,loc_nbr, direct_phone, cell_phone,email, active)
VALUES
(DEFAULT, 'klaver', 'adrian', DEFAULT, 1, 1, '555-1234', '555-4321', 'adrian.klaver@xxxxxxxxxxx', DEFAULT);

If they are not the column defaults then just supply the literal value.


TIA,

Rich
