Thank you very much, I on my previous try I did not include the FROM. I will just do thoroughly checks before COMMIT. Thanks very much.

I think the convention on this list is to bottom-post. On Fri, Mar 28, 2014 at 7:59 AM, Khangelani Gama <kgama@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: Hi Chris

When I try this just below, it complains about foo , saying “ERROR: schema “foo” does not exist.” I got stuck on this error for a while now but still trying to see why but still no luck so far. If you have something please help
begin;
update foo set br_desc = bar.br_desc , br_active = bar.br_active (rest of columns) where foo.br_cde = bar.br_cde;
you need to replace "foo" and "bar" with the names of your tables.
I'm stumped. Here's the test that I just ran on both 9.2 and 8.4, and I'm not getting an error:
drop table if exists foo; drop table if exists bar;
create table foo (a int, b int); create table bar (a int, b int);
insert into foo values (1, 1); insert into foo values (2, 2);
insert into bar values (1, 3); insert into bar values (4, 4);
update foo set b = bar.b from bar where foo.a = bar.a;
select * from bar;
Perhaps if you want to privately send me the exact statement you are using, I can take quick look and see if there's something obvious.
