Re: SQL solution for copying subset of one file to another, based on a third's contents?

INSERT INTO subsetfile

Were it that easy, Peter!  Sorry I wasn't clear; it sounded perfectly clear
as I typed, so... ;-)

First of all, I need to copy records from the production Customer Master,
not the transaction file, into a test Customer Master file.

Secondly, I need to use the transaction file as the source of the CONUM /
CUNUM keys that I want to copy from the production Customer Master, so I
can't see hard-coding a WHERE clause.

Hopefully, that clears up the confusion.  Let me know if I've missed.

Thanks,
