Hi,

i'm trying to make update on multiple tables but don't know how.
is something like this posible with postgresql?

update table1
join table2 on (table1.id=table2.t1)
join table3 on (table2.id=table3.t2)
set table1.name='test', table2.sum=table1.x+table2.y, table3.cell='123456789'
where table1.id=6

I don't know of an SQL variant to handle this case. Usually people are trying to update a single table based on joining to several others.

In your case you'll have to issue three update statements wrapped in a transaction.
