(newbie) copying rows between tables via notepad

Hi
newbie question I'm sure
I have 2 databases on 2 different machines, there is no
connection between the 2. What I need is a way of
extracting particular rows from particular tables and adding them
to another database. The only viable way of doing this is via
email for unimportant reasons.
Via query analyser I can do a select and get the results in
text then manually adjust these back into an insert statement.
There must be a better way but I'm too new to this to know how
Any ideas?

Thanks

Thanks for the reply, this looked like it would have been ideal but
this is the output I get, it gets cut off (column names changed to
protect
the innocent :-))

INSERT INTO [XXXXXXXXXXXXXX]
([XXXXXXXXXXXXX],[XXXXXXXXXXXX],[XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX],[XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX],[XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX],[XXXXXXXXXXXXXX],[XXXXXXXXXXX],[XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX],[XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX],[XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX],[XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX])VALUES('7CC60B79-1B27-4|||(foldface@.yahoo.co.uk) writes:

Sounds like you should go into to Tools->Options->Results and adjust
"Maximum characters per column".

as well but I assumed it was the SP that wasn't working because I
briefly saw this comment, huge is a relative thing!
Works fine now, very handy

NOTE:This procedure may not work with tables with too many columns.
Results can be unpredictable with huge text columns
