There are two basic methods
One is to use an INSERT INTO which can be used where the table is already created
INSERT INTO TestTable (FirstName, LastName)
SELECT FirstName, LastName
FROM Person.Contact
WHERE EmailPromotion = 2
The second is to use a SELECT INTO which can be used to also auto create the table
SELECT FirstName, LastName
INTO TestTable
FROM Person.Contact
WHERE EmailPromotion = 2
