Update two tables

  • Hi,Can I use SQL joint to update two tables or I have to write two separate queries

    Why this query is not working?

    UPDATE EquipmentRental SET EquipmentRental.DateReceived='2-29-08',

    EquipmentRental.ReceivedBy=240,Inventory.StatusID=2 FROM Inventory

    INNER JOIN

    EquipmentRental on Inventory.ItemUniqueID=EquipmentRental.InventoryID

    WHERE EquipmentRental.InventoryID=1012

  • Yoou can update only one table at a time. I imagine that kind of functionality that you'd like would create quite interesting effects regarding transactions.

    Wrap two updates into one transaction or write a trigger on EquipmentRental to update Inventory.
