To see what matches the location table with locations in the inventory table, I can issue the following command and it works returning 17 locations matched and is correct. There are 21 locations in the locations table but only 17 used in the inventory table so I know the query is returning correct data.
I was just using this to make sure my matches were going to be correct. select * from locations t1 where exists ( select * from hive t2 where t1.Location=t2.Location ) Now, I need to update the ItemCount column in the locations table with '1'when there is a corresponding match in the inventory table but using the query below marks all locations in the locations table so I am out of my depth here. update locations set ItemCount='1' where exists( select Location from hive t2 where Location=t2.Location ) Anyone know how to adjust this? I also want to do the reverse, mark any ItemCount in the locations table with '0' when there is no matching entry in the location column in the inventory table update locations set ItemCount='0' where exists( select Location from hive t2 where Location<>t2.Location ) Have tried several varieties of these commands with errors, getting mixed results. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Update-one-table-from-matches-in-another-tp32232409p32232409.html Sent from the SQLite mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
