Frustration for sure. OP has clearly tried pretty hard, on some tricky
bits too, but I'm betting all for naught if (as seems likely) it's just
mistaken sql. "update from" is NOT straight forward.
i had the same feeling than brian and scott, but i am one of the "questioners" not the "answerers" on the list, so i didnt said anything...
but the "i-am-touching-many-parameters-and-doesnt-work" and then complain is not one of the best strategies...
the SQL sentence is far more complicated than it pretended to be...
