Update with a join.
Hello,
Can someone help me correct this statement.
Code:
Update TESTDTA.F0101
Set F0101.ABAN86='5253'
WHERE F03012.AIAN8 = F0101.ABAN8 AND ((F03012.AICO='00219') AND (F03012.AIAC21='H27'));

Thanks
Sam

Something like this (untested):

Code:
update TESTDTA.F0101
set F0101.ABAN86='5253'
from TESTDTA.F0101, TESTDTA.F03012
WHERE F03012.AIAN8 = F0101.ABAN8 
AND (
  (F03012.AICO='00219') 
  AND (F03012.AIAC21='H27')
  );

What database is this?

Oracle 9
The database is oracle. I tried but still not working.

What do you mean by "not working"? Do you get an error?

yes
Missing impression, and high lights the FROM or = in the statement. I tried all different but still not executing. I am wondering if there is different way to write the statement. thanks

Code:
update TESTDTA.F0101
set F0101.ABAN86='5253'
from TESTDTA.F0101, TESTDTA.F03012
WHERE F03012.AIAN8 = F0101.ABAN8 
AND (
  (F03012.AICO='00219') 
  AND (F03012.AIAC21='H27')
  );
------------------
Update TESTDTA.F0101
Set ABAN86='5253'
Where (select F03012.AIAN8 = F0101.ABAN8 from TESTDTA.F03012.ABAN8
AND ((F03012.AICO='00219') 
  AND (F03012.AIAC21='H27')));

Yep,
the from keyword in the update/delete statements is not standard.
I'll test it tomorrow, in the meantime try this:

Code:
update TESTDTA.F0101
set F0101.ABAN86='5253'
where exists (
  select null 
  from TESTDTA.F03012
  where F03012.AIAN8 = F0101.ABAN8
  and (
    (F03012.AICO='00219')
    and (F03012.AIAC21='H27')
    )
  );
