only 4+ supports a join on an update statement
from the manual
Starting with MySQL Version 4.0.4, you can also perform UPDATE operations that cover multiple tables:
UPDATE items,month SET items.price=month.price WHERE items.id=month.id;

hi all,
I would like to do the following:
update Table1, Table2 set Table1.field1 = Table2.field2 where Table1.no = Table2.no
however, i found that multiple updates can only work for MySQL version 4.0.4 but mine is 3.23.54... can anyone enlighten me on how I can achieve the same results with this older MySQL version? or can PHP 4.2.2 help me in any way?
Thank you so much!
