在SQL Server中,可以使用insert将行插入到表中。。SELECT语句:

INSERT INTO Table (col1, col2, col3)
SELECT col1, col2, col3 
FROM other_table 
WHERE sql = 'cool'

是否也可以使用SELECT更新表?我有一个包含这些值的临时表,并希望使用这些值更新另一个表。也许是这样的:

UPDATE Table SET col1, col2
SELECT col1, col2 
FROM other_table 
WHERE sql = 'cool'
WHERE Table.id = other_table.id

另一种尚未提及的可能性是将SELECT语句本身放入CTE,然后更新CTE。

WITH CTE
     AS (SELECT T1.Col1,
                T2.Col1 AS _Col1,
                T1.Col2,
                T2.Col2 AS _Col2
         FROM   T1
                JOIN T2
                  ON T1.id = T2.id
         /*Where clause added to exclude rows that are the same in both tables
           Handles NULL values correctly*/
         WHERE EXISTS(SELECT T1.Col1,
                             T1.Col2
                       EXCEPT
                       SELECT T2.Col1,
                              T2.Col2))
UPDATE CTE
SET    Col1 = _Col1,
       Col2 = _Col2;

这样做的好处是,首先很容易单独运行SELECT语句来检查结果的完整性,但如果源表和目标表中的列名称相同,则需要如上所述对列进行别名。

这也具有与专有UPDATE相同的限制。。。其他四个答案中显示了FROM语法。如果源表位于一对多连接的多方,则无法确定更新中将使用哪些可能匹配的连接记录(如果多次尝试更新同一行,MERGE会通过引发错误来避免此问题)。

其他回答

UPDATE YourTable 
SET Col1 = OtherTable.Col1, 
    Col2 = OtherTable.Col2 
FROM (
    SELECT ID, Col1, Col2 
    FROM other_table) AS OtherTable
WHERE 
    OtherTable.ID = YourTable.ID
UPDATE TQ
SET TQ.IsProcessed = 1, TQ.TextName = 'bla bla bla'
FROM TableQueue TQ
INNER JOIN TableComment TC ON TC.ID = TQ.TCID
WHERE TQ.IsProcessed = 0

要确保正在更新所需内容,请先选择

SELECT TQ.IsProcessed, 1 AS NewValue1, TQ.TextName, 'bla bla bla' AS NewValue2
FROM TableQueue TQ
INNER JOIN TableComment TC ON TC.ID = TQ.TCID
WHERE TQ.IsProcessed = 0

如果你想加入表本身(这不会经常发生):

update t1                    -- just reference table alias here
set t1.somevalue = t2.somevalue
from table1 t1               -- these rows will be the targets
inner join table1 t2         -- these rows will be used as source
on ..................        -- the join clause is whatever suits you

如果使用MySQL而不是SQL Server,语法为:

UPDATE Table1
INNER JOIN Table2
ON Table1.id = Table2.id
SET Table1.col1 = Table2.col1,
    Table1.col2 = Table2.col2

Oracle SQL(使用别名):

UPDATE Table T 
SET T.col1 = (SELECT OT.col1 WHERE OT.id = T.id),
T.col2 = (SELECT OT.col2 WHERE OT.id = T.id);
