T-SQL For Each Alternative?
- by davemackey
I need to take data from one table and import it into another table. In pseudocode, something like this:
For Each row in table1
If row.personid is in table2 then
update table2.row
Else
insert row into table2
End If
Next
What is the best way to do this in T-SQL? As I understand it T-SQL doesn't support For Each..Next, so what alternatives do I have?
