SQL, INSERT Statement

[Steve Martin <smartin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello all, I am trying to get around writing a program - and (instead)
utilize SQL's flexibility.

Here's the scenario...

I have a file (MNUMST) that contains fields: MENU, OPTION, PROGRAM. An
example set of records would look like:
MAIN 01 IMRQ101
MAIN 02 IMRQ102
MAIN 03 IMRQ103
...
Now, I would like to duplicate all records where MENU = 'MAIN' by using
INSERT and create a new set, i.e.:
RPT 01 IMRQ101
RPT 02 IMRQ102
RPT 03 IMRQ103
...

Note: I realize, that, by the time I get done asking this question, I could
have written a program to accomplish this. However, the selection criteria,
the source, and the target will not be static. Also, to further complicate
the issue, I'd like to verify who's authorized to the menu options with a
qualifying WHERE clause (if possible) - introducing a third file.

Anyone help me on this? TIA!!!
