SQL: Update a column with multiple values with single query

开发者 https://www.devze.com 2023-02-04 00:40 出处:网络
I have an update query like following: update table TABLE1 set COL1 = \'X\' where COL2 = \'Y\' ---1 Support the values \'X\' and \'Y\' are fetched from database now TABLE2. E.g.

I have an update query like following:

update table TABLE1 set COL1 = 'X' where COL2 = 'Y' ---1

Support the values 'X' and 'Y' are fetched from database now TABLE2. E.g.

select COL1, COL2 from TABLE2. ----2

I w开发者_Go百科ant to update table TABLE1 with values from TABLE2.

Just to make it more clear, assume that TABLE2 has following values:

SQL: Update a column with multiple values with single query

Can you please help me in doing this in a single query!

I am using Oracle 11g.


For Oracle, this is the most basic way to do it:

update TABLE1
  set COL1 = (select TABLE2.COL1 from TABLE2 where TABLE2.COL2 = TABLE1.COL2)
  where COL2 IN (select TABLE2.COL2 from TABLE2);

This can be inefficient in some cases since it could execute a subquery for every row in TABLE1.

Depending on the declaration of primary key or unique constraints on both tables, you may be able to use the updateable inline-view method, which is probably more efficient:

update
  (select TABLE1.COL1 as T1C1, TABLE1.COL2 as T1C2, TABLE2.COL1 as T2C1
     from TABLE1 join TABLE2 on TABLE2.COL2 = TABLE1.COL2
  )
  set T1C1 = T2C1;


@Dave Costa's answer is correct, if you limit yourself to update statements. However, I've found that using a merge statement in these situations allows me to do this in a more straightforward manner:

merge into TABLE1 
      using TABLE2 
      on (TABLE2.COL2 = TABLE1.COL2)
when matched then
     update set TABLE1.COL1 = TABLE2.COL1;


update TABLE1 
set TABLE1.COL1 = TABLE2.COL1
from TABLE1
join TABLE2 on TABLE1.COL2 = TABLE2.COL2

(this would work on Sql Server)


for oracle:

UPDATE Table1 t1
 SET (X,Y) = (SELECT X,Y from Table2 WHERE ...YourConditions...)
WHERE ... Another Conditions ...

for mysql, sql-server

UPDATE t1
 SET t1.X = t2, t2.Y = t2.Y
FROM Table1 t1, Table2 t2
WHERE t1.Something = t2.Something
