How can I insert values into a table, using a subquery with more than one result?

Question

I have two tables in SQL Server:

1. article
2. prices

Now I want to select a certain set of ids and insert some entries into the prices-table with those ID.

e.g. (wrong and not working SQL)

INSERT INTO prices (group, id, price) 
VALUES (7, (select articleId from article WHERE name LIKE 'ABC%'), 1.50);

SQL Error -> subquery has more than 1 value

Answer 1

You want:

insert into prices (group, id, price)
select 
    7, articleId, 1.50
from article where name like 'ABC%';

where you just hardcode the constant fields.
