I have customer
and address
tables.
query:
select * from addresses a, customers b where a.id = b.id
returns 474 records
For these records, I'd like to add the id
of customer
table into cid
of address
table.
Example:
If for the first record the id of customer is 9 and id
of address is also 9 then i'd like to insert 9 into cid column of address table.
I tried:
update addresses a, customers b set a.cid = b.id where a.id = b.id
but this does not seem to work.
