Could someone fill me in on what I'm doing wrong here..
DROP VIEW invsmrize CREATE VIEW invsmrize (category, ctotals ) + AS SELECT category, SUM(cy_unit_cost * quantity) FROM tmdinv + GROUP BY category
UPDATE lycopy03 SET totalamt = (T2.ctotals) FROM tmdinv T1, invsmrize T2 + WHERE T1.category = T2.category
I am creating the view above to gather some totals, and then I just want to update a column in a table with the results. The lycopy03 table has just two columns Category (Text 15) and totalamt which is currency. The tmdinv table has several columns but the Category is Text 15, the cy_unit_cost is double and the quantity is real. In my view I get some ugly results, and I'm wondering if this is the culprit here.
Any help appreciated.
