Hi, I have some sql like so: SELECT min(date) INTO d FROM interest_rate WHERE m_code = NEW.code; UPDATE interest_rate SET date = NEW.start_date, rate = NEW.initial_rate WHERE m_code = NEW.code AND date = d;
Actually this is pgsql but I don't think that matters. I am wondering if I can make this more compact by somehow including the 'min' function in the WHERE clause, but WITHOUT simply moving the select in there. So not this.. UPDATE interest_rate SET date = NEW.start_date, rate = NEW.initial_rate WHERE m_code = NEW.code AND date = (SELECT min(date) FROM interest_rate WHERE m_code = NEW.code); This is just an example but I seem to find this pattern a lot in my functions.
