If want to insert rows into a table based on data rows from other tables, you can use a subquery inside the INSERT statement as shown in the following script example:

<?php
  $con = mssql_connect('LOCALHOST','sa','FYIcenter');
  mssql_select_db('FyiCenterData', $con);

  $sql = "INSERT INTO fyi_links"
      . " SELECT id+1000, REVERSE(url), notes, counts, time"
      . " FROM fyi_links";
  $res = mssql_query($sql,$con);
  if (!$res) {
    print("SQL statement failed with error:\n");
    print("   ".mssql_get_last_message()."\n");
  } else {
    print("Multiple rows inserted.\n");
  }

  mssql_close($con); 

If you run this script, the table should have 4 rows now. And you will get:

Multiple rows inserted
