Question : Copy a column to another database

Hi,

I have 2 databases (both identical) one called GAM and one called GAMBK, now due to a programming error 14 columns from a table called contact2 have been 'cleared' to NULL in GAM, however the data still exists in GAMBK which was a backup taken the night before.

So say I have columns AA BB CC and DD in my database and that AA is the unique primary key, how can I copy across data from GAMBK..DD so it sits in GAM.DD based on GAM..AA = GAMBK..AA

I hope this makes sense.

Thanks
Mike

Answer : Copy a column to another database

Hope this helps

update GAM
set BB = t2.BB,
CC = t2.CC,
DD = t2.DD
from GAM t1, GAMBK t2
where t1.AA = t2.AA
