Hello, I need to update few rows of a table (call it 't') and need to set just one column col1 (out of around 100 columns... to be exact, our table has 116 columns). The info about rows to be updated is present in another table t2. t2 just contains 2 columns (row_key, new value for col1). What is the best way to perform update? Can't I give an update statement like: UPDATE t set col1=t2.new_col1_val where t1.row_key = t2.row_key ???? I think this kind of support is provided in db2, but couldn't find how this can be done in postgres. Thanks, Venkatesh __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
