If you don't have the where clause, you can get errors when there's no
match found in WCS. Unless INV.FEAT is a null-capable field, in which
case it will be set to null.

At least, that's what my gut feeling says, I've never used null before.

Re: SQL Update with Join






Very nice guys...that's for the help. Now, for my edification, what's
the difference between Peter's, Alan's and Guy's approaches? Peter is
selecting one, right? And Alan is selecting any, but will get the
first (or only)? And Guy is doing a straight select? What's the
difference/advantage in using the EXISTS clause? Thanks!
