Re: FW: Another SQL question

[Vernon Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Michael, did you try this syntax first? I don't think it could ever work.

1. acnm_name1 in the SET clause does not come from anywhere
2. There is a mix of *SYS and *SQL naming
3. The WHERE clause has no logical comparison operator (predicate, IIRC)

Is this syntax from another RDBMS?

Later, dude
