Interesting site ...

  • http://www.wideman-one.com/gw/tech/accessjet/sqlposting.htm

    I know that this is for Access but was wondering if it would work for SQL Server.  I need to update my tables from a remote Oracle data warehouse and was wondering if this would run on SQL Server.  To answer my own question, it looks wrong and it doesnt work anyway ... but could it?

  • The link you posted does not work.  If you can post a good one, I will look at it and see.

  • hm ... it works for me ... but here is the SQL

     

    UPDATE Cumulative RIGHT JOIN Updates ON   Cumulative.Ix = Updates.Ix SET   Cumulative.Ix    = Updates.Ix,   Cumulative.Descr = Updates.Descr

  • It works for me now also.

    It looks like it might work.  Try it and see (if you have a dev environment to play in)

  • Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'RIGHT'.

  • Try RIGHT OUTER instead.
