Hello,I'm trying to run the following SQL statement on a table of my MySQL DB: insert into MYTABLE(ID, VALUE, SORTKEY) select T.ID, 'to to', MAX(T.SORTKEY) + 1 from MYTABLE as T group by T.ID
You can't insert into the same table that you're selecting from. This is in the manual. You could select into a temp table, then select that into your original table. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
