i need to update a row of a table taking the values of a "select ... from table1, 
table2 where table1.row=table2.row group by row" query.

say:

desc source_table;

key               int(10)   FK
column_source     timestamp

desc table_to_update;

key               int(10)
column_to_update  datetime

i want the result of:

select s.key1,max(s.column_source) from source_table s, column_to_update c where 
s.key=c.key group by key;

to be the values in a query something like (please ignore the syntax ... just trying 
to explain what i need to do):

update table_to_update set table_to_update.column_to_update=source_table.column_source 
where table_to_update.key=source_table.key

awwww ... im not good in explaining ... hope u get what i wanted to say.

tnxs in advance.
