hello again, im trying to do another sql statement
but i've been told its not possible to do it and wanted to confirm
that.
i basicly have 2 tables, the first table called NewData has account and budget.
The second table is Accounts and has account, budget and some other columns that
we need to preserve. What im trying to do is update Accounts with the new
budgets from NewData. If in NewData there is account 3 and budget
$5.00 then i need that to update account 3 in Accounts to have a budget of
$5.00. There are a few thousand of these entires in NewData and i was
hoping there was some way to do it without a cursor loop. Something
like:
update accounts set budget=t2.budget from accounts
t1,NewData t2 where t1.account=t2.account
what i heard exactly was "in standard SQL,
multi-table update does not exist."
any ideas? (:
