If TABLE1 and TABLE2 are the same table, your example:
UPDATE TABLE1
SET TABLE1.FIELD = TABLE2.FIELD
FROM TABLE1, TABLE2
WHERE TABLE1.KEY = TABLE2.KEY
AND TABLE1.FIELD = 'Y'
simplifies to a no-op:
UPDATE TABLE1
SET FIELD = FIELD
WHERE FIELD = 'Y'
which is probably not what you want.
How about giving us the real schema?
