Hi Gad,
this syntax is not SQL Standard, so I assume any RFE for that will be
denied.
The correct Syntax for an update is:
Update Table a
Set UpdFld = (Select Fld
From Table2 b
Where a.Key1 = b.Key1
and a.Key2 = b.Key2 ?
and a.KeyN = b.KeyN)
Where Exists (Select Fld
from Table2 c
Where a.Key1 = c.Key1
and a.Key2 = c.Key2 ?
and a.KeyN = c.KeyN)
Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

Subject: RFE for SQL update from
Hello sages
Does anybody know of an RFE for SQL to enable a from clause in SQL update
statement ?
like the way it's done in MS SQL SERVER TSQL.
update file_A
set file_A.field1 = file_B.field1
from file_A inner join file_B on file_B.key = file_A.key
TIA
Gad
