Hi,

a few day ago I hit the same problem...

TA=TableA
TB=TableB
FA=FieldA
FB=FieldB

This should work (but it takes pretty long):
   update TA set (FA)=(select TB.FB from TB where TB.Nr = TA.Nr)
   Where TA.Nr in (select TB.Nr from TB)

This should be ok but it does not work on MaxDB:
   UPDATE TA INNER JOIN TA ON TB.NR = TA.NR
   SET TA.FA = TB.FB

Good Luck

Hi,

I really need your help. I have some problems with implementing an Update of 
special rows in one of my tables:

I have the following tables:

"T1" with fields called "id" and "value"

and a table "T2" with the fields "id" and "value"

I want to update T1.value with T2.value where T1.id = T2.id,

but only if the T2 contains the id.

Here is the example:

T1:

id, value

1, 'A'

2, 'B'

3, 'C'

T2:

id, value

2, 'X'

After the update T1 should be

id, value

1, 'A'

2, 'X'

3, 'C'

I first tried

UPDATE "T1" SET "value" = (SELECT "T2"."value" FROM "T2" WHERE "T1"."id" = 
"T2"."id")

But here all rows (exept id=2) are set to NULL.

I think this is not a very complex problem but I need a advice how to solve it.

Thanks for any help or advice

Phil
