Correct, the 'select into...' statement attempts to create the table, not
just insert rows.
I had this problem on a different system (which I haven't tried to do in
pgsql), where the solution was:
insert into tbl1
select * from tbl2 where this = that
I *think* you could declare a value list as in a normal insert. I also
think that this is SQL, not something specific to that db system, but I
may be wrong.

Mark.
