You were right. I was on a year old version of Sequel. I updated to
the latest version, and that got rid of those errors. After cleaning
up a few mistakes on my part in my modified query I got it to run. The
only part I couldn't figure out was setting the new field based off
adding multiple fields together.

I tried using a proc to create the `update` SET, but the SET clause
just kept ending up blank when I wrote it like this:

      update{balance = pc[:funded] + pcs[:activity] }

Sequel::DatabaseError: PG::SyntaxError: ERROR:  syntax error at or near "FROM"
LINE 1: UPDATE "period_categories" AS "pc" SET  FROM (SELECT "pc2"...

            ^
Thanks again.
