Here it is
tbl itms (std_nm text, raw_nm text)
tbl aliases (std_nm text, raw_nm text)

Id like to whip through table itms which has a blank col std_nm and fill in as many fields as I can
by
reading each itms' raw_nm fld
finding any matching rec (with the same raw_nm value) in aliases
updating the std_nm fld in itms with corresponding std_nm value in the matching fld in aliases

Here's my miserable attempt
gDb eval "UPDATE itms SET std_nm=(SELECT std_nm FROM aliases as x WHERE raw_nm = x.raw_nm);"

Any help much appreciated
