update advdb.pub pub17
SET pub17.pub_sysdate = (select pub14.mdate
from advdb.pub_14 pub14
WHERE pub17.adno = pub14.adno
AND pub17.pubno = pub14.pubno
AND pub17.vno = pub14.vno )
where exists (select null
from advdb.pub_14 p
WHERE pub17.adno = p.adno
AND pub17.pubno = p.pubno
AND pub17.vno = p.vno );
I must be missing something as it seems too simple. I am assuming that
(adno,pubno,vno) provide a unique index into pub_14, otherwise you need to
somehow clarify which of the multiple mdate-s you want.
