I'm on v5r2, if that makes a difference...

ok?
obviously you are misssing something.
Please run this query.
select b.locn, count(a.locn)
from adp/locnmstrpf b
join tomh/locnstrpf a using(locn)
where a.printer<>' ' and b.printer = ' '
group by b.locn
having count(a.locn) > 1
do you get a result? if so that's why your update statement is returning
that message.

This updated the field in the proper file, but with the highest "printer"
value from the backup file.

update adp/locnmstrpf set printer=(select max(a.printer) from
tomh/locnmstrpf a, adp/locnmstrpf b where a.locn=b.locn and a.printer<>' '
and b.printer=' ')
might do it for you.

I have two files: TOMH/LOCNMSTRPF, ADP/LOCNMSTRPF - both the same layout
and field names (the TOMH file is a backup of the ADP file). Key field for
each is called LOCN. For all records in ADP/LOCNMSTRPF, I want to update
one field ("printer") with data from the corresponding record/field in
TOMH/LOCNMSTRPF. I've tried the following SQL, but I'm getting an error:
update adp/locnmstrpf set printer=(select a.printer from tomh/locnmstrpf a,
adp/locnmstrpf b where a.locn=b.locn and a.printer<>' ' and b.printer=' ')
The error is: Result of SELECT more than one row.
Well of course it is. I know I can use RPG to do what I want, but I'd like
to know how to accomplish the same thing using only SQL. There is a way to
do this, right?
