hi... can someone tell me if this should work in theory...
basically, i'm looking to get a bunch of rows from my initial table, based on the value of a given column/field. i'd then like to do a complete replace/update on the values in the temp table. finally, i'd like to write everything in the replaced/updated tmp table back to the orignal tbl... i'm essentially using 3 steps to get this accomplished... create tmp table temp select a.appName, a.universityID from appTBL a where a.complete = 0 replace into temp (appName, universityID) values(%s,%s) replace into appTBL select t.appName, t.universityID from temp t thoughts/comments/etc... -thanks -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
