I want to update keywork7 column from another joined table. I want to update ONLY after comparing one column from one table to one column from the second table (as shown below at Error1).

How can I accomplish this in SQL?

The code below throws an error: Column SEAL1 not in specified tables.


Thanks!







update jstone/docs00
set keyword7 =
(select seal1 from load
where ashpnbr = substr(keyword1,1,10)
and shipdate =
'20'||substr(keyword2,7,2)||substr(keyword2,1,2)||
substr(keyword2,4,2) )
where
substr(keyword7,1,10) <> seal1 <------Error1: how to compare one column from each table
and substr(keyword7,1,6) = substr(seal1,1,6)
and substr(keyword2,7,2) = '14' -- only fix 2014 records
and docid = 'AS400DOC-000000016734036'
