I have two database tables
Now i want to copy column & all its contents called "name" from "old_table" to "new_table" in the field called "name_ar"
I created the column in "new_table" using "ALTER TABLE new_table ADD name_ar TEXT ;" mysql command
Then copied column using "INSERT INTO new table (name_ar) SELECT name FROM old_table" mysql command
Iam not mysql developer so i have a problem now, which is the column contents added to the end of table not from the beginning
Meaning that
How could i copy column to other table & add those contents in the first record in the table not in the end as i found that other columns have null values after adding the fourth column contents
Any help will be apreciated
Thanks for all
