I think that perhaps you want something like this....

UPDATE file1
SET (fld1, fld2, fld3, ...) =
(select file2.fld1, file2.fld2, file2.fld3, ...
From file2
Where file1.fld1=file2.fld1 and file1.fld2=file2.fld2)
WHERE exists (select * from file2 x where file1.fld1=x.fld1 and
file1.fld2=x.fld2)

Hi.
I know I can update a table this way

UPDATE file1
SET file1.fld1=
(select file2.fld1 from file2
where file2.fld11=file1.fld11)

but I need to update more than one field at a time like this

UPDATE file1
SET file1.fld1=file2.fld1, file1.fld2=file2.fld2
...
WHERE file2.fld11=file1.fld11 and file2.fld12=file1.fld12

Thanks for any help
