Re: What is wrong with this SQL - Mailing list pgsql-novice

could it be that you want this?

update price
set price.price = 200
where(price RIGHT JOIN product ON price.product = product.id) as price RIGHT
JOIN
supplier ON product.supplier = supplier.id
WHERE (((supplier.id)=4) AND ((supplier.status)=1) AND
((product.status)=1) AND ((price.type)=1) AND ((product.id)=100902));

Im not sure if this works, but it should start you down the correct road.

Thanks
Chad
