Hi all,

I have two tables


CREATE TABLE main ( ID int not null, Value int );

CREATE TABLE sub (
  mainID int not null,
  KeyDate date not null,
  SubValue int not null
);


I want the Value field in the main table to be set to the latest SubValue in the sub table.
I suppose this syntax should work. But it does not, and sets the Value fields to incorrect values.


update main set Value = (select SubValue from sub where main.ID = sub.mainID order by KeyDate desc limit 1)

Any ideas?

Thanks,
        Dan
