Default How copy text from one table to insert in another (w/o tbl structu

I just want to clarify that I meant that the 2 tables had the same
'structure' from the get-go and that I wanted simply to transfer 'text' from
the second to the first.

My problem was that I could not find a way to transfer *only* the text.
When I inserted what I thought was only text in the second table, all the
table structure from the first table was also inserted along with it --
making a mess.

I wanted to copy data from one table to another with the same table structure
(same number of rows/columns).

When I selected and copied the text from the first table and then inserted
it into the other, the entire table structure was included in the copy.

How can I prevent that -- i.e., how can I get only the text to insert into
the target table?

Thanks.
