lookup the syntax and usage of the merge command. (or if that's not in your
version write two statements, an insert and an update). Actually now I've
looked at your case more closely and made some guesses based on the column
names, I'd suggest that you write the insert for missing data and consider
the update case very carefully to make sure it achieves what the
business/data model expects - I'd usually experiment with a single known row
to start with.
