MYSQL select into multiple rows - mysql

Question

I have this trigger where it checks a table named auctions for auctions that have ended. Once the auction ends, a winner is placed into the column. The trigger then checks whether there is a valid winner. The problem is when its checking the auctions tab and one person has won 2 bids or more. It says resulting row has more than one columns, which makes sense because the person won 2 or more rows. My question is how I can use SELECT INTO to insert multiple rows with the same "winner".
DELIMITER ;
DELIMITER $$
CREATE TRIGGER notify_winner
AFTER UPDATE ON Auctions
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
SELECT A.winner, A.vin INTO #buyer, #vin
FROM Auctions AS A WHERE A.winner != 'NONE' AND A.winner IS NOT NULL;
INSERT INTO Wins (winner,vin)
values (#buyer, #vin);
END$$
DELIMITER ;

Answer 1

Actually you can't. Select Into is used when has just one row as result. Use cursor instead. For example:
DELIMITER $$
CREATE TRIGGER notify_winner
AFTER UPDATE ON Auctions
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
DECLARE done INT DEFAULT FALSE;
DECLARE cur1 CURSOR FOR
SELECT A.winner, A.vin
FROM Auctions AS A
WHERE A.winner != 'NONE'
AND A.winner IS NOT NULL;
DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER FOR NOT FOUND SET done = TRUE;
OPEN cur1;
read_loop: LOOP
FETCH cur1 INTO #buyer, #vin;
IF done THEN
LEAVE read_loop;
END IF;
INSERT
INTO Wins (winner,vin)
values (#buyer, #vin);
END LOOP;
CLOSE cur1;
END$$
DELIMITER ;
