converting mysql insert statement to sql server insert statement?

Question

I'm getting error while converting mysql insert statement into sql server 2008. because limit and alias is not working can anybody tell me what I'm doing wrong in following query.

insert into account (product_cd, cust_id, open_date,
  last_activity_date, status, open_branch_id,
  open_emp_id, avail_balance, pending_balance)
select  a.prod_cd, c.cust_id, a.open_date, a.last_date, 'ACTIVE',
  e.branch_id, e.emp_id, a.avail, a.pend
from customer c cross join 
 (select b.branch_id, e.emp_id 
  from branch b inner join employee e on e.assigned_branch_id = b.branch_id
  where b.city = 'Woburn' limit 1) e
  cross join
 (select 'CHK' prod_cd, '2000-01-15' open_date, '2005-01-04' last_date,
    1057.75 avail, 1057.75 pend union all
  select 'SAV' prod_cd, '2000-01-15' open_date, '2004-12-19' last_date,
    500.00 avail, 500.00 pend union all
  select 'CD' prod_cd, '2004-06-30' open_date, '2004-06-30' last_date,
    3000.00 avail, 3000.00 pend) a
where c.fed_id = '111-11-1111';

Change:

 (select b.branch_id, e.emp_id 
  from branch b inner join employee e on e.assigned_branch_id = b.branch_id
  where b.city = 'Woburn' limit 1) 

With this:

(select TOP 1 b.branch_id, e.emp_id 
  from branch b inner join employee e on e.assigned_branch_id = b.branch_id
  where b.city = 'Woburn')

Though there seems to be no ORDER BY clause, and you also do two CROSS JOIN , are you sure that this returns your expected output?
