RE: SQL UPDATE AND JOIN

UPDATE INSTRMST (SELECT FROM INSTRMST JOIN REPTINST ON RIRINS = FIINST)
SET 
FIRSTA = 'A'       

Should be 
UPDATE INSTRMST SET FIRSTA = 'A'        
Where exists (SELECT FROM INSTRMST JOIN REPTINST ON RIRINS = FIINST) 

Thanks,
Tommy Holden

Subject: SQL UPDATE AND JOIN

I want to update INSTRMST file where the field matches the field in the 
REPTINST file... the syntax checker does not like the following... What
is 
the correct structure?


 UPDATE INSTRMST (SELECT FROM INSTRMST JOIN REPTINST ON RIRINS = FIINST)
SET 
FIRSTA = 'A'       
 
 
 
 
Thanks,
