将数据从一个表复制到另一个表

Question

I have two table OldDocuments and Documents and I want to import Data from one table, OldDocument and copy it into the new table knowing that the two tables do not have the same column name numbers neither the same names.

Here are the columns I want to import to the new table

OldDocument

Id(PK)
Document(BLOB)
fileName(VARCHAR)
DocumentType(VARCHAR)
user_Id(FK)

Document

Id (PK)
Document_content (BLOB)
fileName (VARCHAR)
DocType(VARCHAR)
user_Id (FK)

I need a query that will select from one table and copy into the new tables these columns. Something like

    INSERT INTO DOCUMENT(ID,document_content, fileName , DocType, user_Id) 
    VALUES (get data from the old table)

INSERT INTO Document (Id,Document_content,fileName,DocType,user_Id)
SELECT Id,Document,fileName,DocumentType,user_Id
FROM OldDocument
