Обсуждение: APPEND INTO?

I want to SELECT INTO mytable WHERE (criteria are met), except that I 
want to APPEND into an existing table the rows that are selected, 
instead of creating a new table (which SELECT INTO will do).  How can 
this be done?

(Is this what the "FOR UPDATE OF tablename" clause is for?)
