Subject: [RBASE-L] - SQL Update Question

Good afternoon,

 

I’m running the latest version of 9.5(64) and need help from the SQL gurus (my 
brain is fried). I’m trying to update a column called name1 in table1 based on 
the numeric value of column number1 in table2. For example: 

 

Table1

Number1             Name1

111                         blank

111                         blank

222                         blank

333                         blank

333                         blank

 

Table2

Number2             Name2

111                         Tom

222                         Steve

333                         Bob

 

After the update command is issued:

 

Table1

Number1             Name1

111                         Tom

111                         Tom

222                         Steve

333                         Bob

333                         Bob

 

I hope this makes sense. 

 

TIA,

Paul Buckley
