[firebird-support] Update table column from another table
Dear All, I have difficulty with updating column records of one table from another table columns, which have common columns for relation. Executed query is as follow : update elements E set E.END_I = (select n.node_num from nodes N where (E.X_I =N.XI and E.Y_I = N.YI and E.Z_I=N.ZI) ) where exists (select 1 from nodes N where (E.X_I =N.XI and E.Y_I = N.YI and E.Z_I=N.ZI)) The problem with that is , not all the columns of Elements are updated, only one portion is correctly updated and rest remains intact. I tried to follow instructions here http://www.firebirdfaq.org/faq323/ but without success. I use old version of Firebird which is ver 2.1. What is rong with the code above, Regards,

hi, did you try select instead of update to see if select return all records which you try to update? regards,Karol Bieniaszewski Oryginalna wiadomość Od: "Sonya Blade sonyablade2...@hotmail.com [firebird-support]"Data: 02.01.2016 08:24 (GMT+01:00) Do: firebird-support@yahoogroups.com Temat: [firebird-support] Update table column from another table Dear All, I have difficulty with updating column records of one table from another table columns, which have common columns for relation.

Re: [firebird-support] Update table column from another table
Floating point values are not exact values, there is not guarantee. If you need exact values, use NUMERIC or DECIMAL instead. Greetings. Walter.

Ynt: [firebird-support] Update table column from another table
Yes I tried that it wasn't selecting at all, it was due to the floating point comparison. It seems that hit the wall about that floating point precision I eliminate that with subtracting the coumns and taking the absolute value if it is less than 0.01 epsilon reference value. It worked for now, but I'd like to know what is the decent way of solving such issues.
