This creates a new table based on the SELECT structure (column 
names and types - this does not apply any constraints to the 
new table, including primary key constraint): 
 
CREATE TABLE new_table AS 
SELECT some_columns 
FROM some_tables 
WHERE some_expressions 
 
 
This only inserts bulk of data into a table using a select: 
 
INSERT INTO existing_destination_table ( destination_columns ) 
SELECT source_columns 
FROM source_tables 
WHERE some_expressions

PS.: It may not work in some DBMS engines but should work in most 
     of them.
