We can copy all columns from one table to another  existing table   INSERT INTO table2  SELECT   FROM table1    Or we can copy only the columns we want to into another  existing table   INSERT INTO table2   column name s    SELECT column name s   FROM table1   or SELECT   INTO BACKUP TABLE1 FROM TABLE1

You have to surround the select part with parenthesis   CREATE TABLE SCHEMA NEW TB AS       SELECT       FROM SCHEMA OLD TB   WITH NO DATA   Should work   Pay attention to all the things  Gilbert said would not be copied   I m assuming DB2 on Linux Unix Windows here  since you say DB2 v9 5
