Thanks Tom, I saw it. Check my response.

What I have discovered since is that I'm very used to an extension that Microsoft has to their implementation of the UPDATE statement: the ability to do just what I want.

In a nutshell: You can use a select to join any tables you wish & then use that result as a data source to do a keyed update any other table - as long as the key is specified in the result you built. Very handy. Received on Fri Aug 02 2002 - 12:27:22 CDT
