MS SQL - insert data from one Table into another using Trigger

Question

I have few data's in Table_1 & want to insert the data into Table_2.

Is it possible to perform this operation using Trigger function in MS SQL?

Also I want this to data to insert into table_2 automatically in a specific time.

Can this be performed using SQL Trigger?

New to SQL...

Answer 1

Perhaps an instead of trigger could be of use?

CREATE TRIGGER [schema_name.] trigger_name
ON {table_name | view_name }
INSTEAD OF {[INSERT] [,] [UPDATE] [,] [DELETE] }
AS
{sql_statements}

Note though that you will have to insert into both tables in the trigger as you are "overriding" the standard INSERT .
