Can I use SELECT statement inside INSERT values?

Question

I tried this:

INSERT  INTO tbl_vaucher
        (
          vaucher_name,
          created_date
        )
VALUES  (
          ( SELECT TOP 1
                    con_full_name
            FROM    tbl_contact
          ),
          GETDATE()
        )

, getting: Subqueries are not allowed in this context. Only scalar expressions are allowed.

I need a solution that would work without functions.

Answer 1

INSERT
INTO    tbl_vaucher (vaucher_name, created_date)
SELECT  TOP 1
        con_full_name, GETDATE()
FROM    tbl_contact
