This thread seems not to have received any answer...
Let me try it again.
FWIW, using WinXP + SP3, MS Office XP (2002) + SP3:
In a small PC project we are using MS Access 2002.
I have an Access table that is partially incorrect in a certain field
values.
I'm trying to UPDATE it, using corrected values from a different but
similar table.
Found in the Archives the following thread, and changed it to fit my needs.
UPDATE Table1 AS t1
SET Vendido = (Select Vendido
from Table2 t2
Where t1.ID = t2.ID)
WHERE EXISTS (Select 1
from Table2 t2
Where t1.ID = t2.ID);
When I try to execute, Access gives me an error "La operacion debe usar
una consulta actualizable" (translate from Spanish, so may not be the
exact english words, but... "Operation must use an updatable query"... )
where Help is of no joy...
Of course, I'm logged as System Administrator, all rights, dedicated system...
Am I missing something?
Does anybody know if Access 2002 supports this kind of <Update a table
from another table> using EXISTS as suggested for a different case in
the Archives?
Thanks,
