Hi,
Try this,
mysql> update atable,btable set atable.b=atable.b+(select sum(b) from btable
where btable.a=atable.a) where atable.a=btable.a;
mysql> select * from atable;
+--+--+
| a| b|
+--+--+
| 1| 10 |
| 2| 15 |
| 3| 23 |
| 4| 10 |
+--+
which ver of mysql are you using? multiple table update is possible only
with ver starting from 4.0.4.
HTH..
