Dear MySQL wizards, 

I have two tables, call them A and B.   The database structure is identical.  
I want the records in B to overwrite the records in (REPLACE INTO) A.  

This is the statement that does NOT work.

REPLACE INTO a SELECT b.* FROM b WHERE a.field1 = b.field1 

I also tried this with the last the conditional statement reversed.  MySQL 
doesn't like my syntax.   The field names in A are identical to B.  

TIA for any help.
