> * Allow UPDATE, DELETE to handle table aliases for self-joins [delete]
Thanks. I need to set up a system for 7.4, in the hopes that eventually
I can become a contributor rather than just a consumer.
I've got another SQL-related question about UPDATE.
I need to update several columns in table1 with either the minimum or
maximum value of a corresponding column in a matching set of rows in
table2. I'd like to be able to do it in a single query.
The following doesn't work, it updates just one row.
UPDATE table1
set t1_col1 = max(t2_col1),
t1_col2 = min(t2_col2)
from table2
where t1_key = t2_key
I don't seem to be able to use a group clause.
Is there a way to write this query?
