MS SQL insert into two tables - sql-server

Question

I have four tables.
Person(
GUID uniqueidentifier
LastName varchar(20)
FirstName varchar(20)
SSN varchar(20)
ResidenceAddressGUID uniqueidentifier
)
Adress(
GUID uniqueidentifier
Street varchar(50)
Zip varchar(10)
)
Code(
CodeNumber
PersonGUID
Street
Zip
)
Tmp(
FirstName
LastName
Street
Zip
CodeNumber
)
And I want to move the data from Tmp to Person and Adress. What is the simplest way to do it?
EDIT:
I actually found out that TMP has a field "Code" that should be copied to the Code table with the street-adress and zip, no relationship to the address table.

Answer 1

No, you can't insert into multiple tables in one MySQL command. You can however use transactions.
BEGIN
INSERT INTO PERSON(LastName, FirstName)
SELECT
FirstName,
LastName
FROM TMP
INSERT INTO ADDRESS(Street)
SELECT
Street
FROM TMP;
COMMIT;

Answer 2

You can use a INSERT INTO statement combined with a SELECT statement to map the columns from TMP you want to insert into ADDRESS.
INSERT INTO Address(Street, Zip)
SELECT
Street,
Zip
FROM TMP
Also, you do the same thing for PERSON table.
INSERT INTO Person(LastName, FirstName, ResidenceAddressGUID)
SELECT
T.Street,
T.Zip,
A.GUID
FROM TMP T INNER JOIN ADDRESS A
ON T.Street = A.Street
AND T.Zip = A.Zip
Based on your later comments, I modified my queries and I hope now you understand the pattern and can do the queries for the CODE table yourself.

Answer 3

If (Address&Zip) combination is unique, you could use this:
INSERT INTO Address
SELECT DISTINCT
T.Street,
T.Zip
FROM
TMP T LEFT JOIN
Address A ON A.Zip = T.Zip AND Z.Street = T.Street
WHERE
A.GUID IS NULL
INSERT INTO Person (
FirstName,
LastName,
ResidenceAddressGUID)
SELECT
T.FirstName,
T.LastName,
A.GUID
FROM
TMP T INNER JOIN
Address A ON A.Street = T.Street AND A.ZIP = T.ZIP
If they are not unique, you should have a look at mssql INSERT OUTPUT option

Answer 4

Select statements can be used in combination with an insert statement to copy data from one table to another. One caveat, you must include a primary key for the tmp data your moving. In my example, I have included a sequence, which would work with an Oracle database. Depending on how the keys are assigned you may be able to omit the sequence, such as when a MySql autonumber exists.
insert into Person(GUID, FirstName, LastName)
select PERSON_SEQ.nextval, FirstName, LastName from Tmp;
insert into Adress(GUID, Street, Zip)
select ADRESS_SEQ.nextval, Street,Zip from Tmp;
