将内容从一个表复制到另一个表的简单方法如下:

UPDATE table2 
SET table2.col1 = table1.col1, 
table2.col2 = table1.col2,
...
FROM table1, table2 
WHERE table1.memberid = table2.memberid

还可以添加条件以复制特定的数据。

我相信一个带JOIN的UPDATE FROM会有帮助:

MS SQL

UPDATE
    Sales_Import
SET
    Sales_Import.AccountNumber = RAN.AccountNumber
FROM
    Sales_Import SI
INNER JOIN
    RetrieveAccountNumber RAN
ON 
    SI.LeadID = RAN.LeadID;

MySQL和MariaDB

UPDATE
    Sales_Import SI,
    RetrieveAccountNumber RAN
SET
    SI.AccountNumber = RAN.AccountNumber
WHERE
    SI.LeadID = RAN.LeadID;

如果以上答案不适合你，试试这个

Update Sales_Import A left join RetrieveAccountNumber B on A.LeadID = B.LeadID
Set A.AccountNumber = B.AccountNumber
where A.LeadID = B.LeadID 

这是Mysql和Maria DB最简单和最好的

UPDATE table2, table1 SET table2.by_department = table1.department WHERE table1.id = table2.by_id

注意:如果您遇到以下错误基于您的Mysql/Maria DB版本“错误代码:1175。您正在使用安全更新模式，并且您试图更新一个没有使用KEY列的WHERE的表。要禁用安全模式，请切换首选项中的选项。

然后像这样运行代码

SET SQL_SAFE_UPDATES=0;
UPDATE table2, table1 SET table2.by_department = table1.department WHERE table1.id = table2.by_id

总结其他答案，关于如何仅在“匹配存在”时使用来自另一个表的数据更新目标表，有4种变体

查询和子查询:

update si
set    si.AccountNumber = (
    select ran.AccountNumber 
    from   RetrieveAccountNumber ran
    where  si.LeadID = ran.LeadID
)
from Sales_Import si
where exists (select * from RetrieveAccountNumber ran where ran.LeadID = si.LeadID)

内连接:

update si
set si.AccountNumber = ran.AccountNumber
from Sales_Import si inner join RetrieveAccountNumber ran on si.LeadID = ran.LeadID

交叉连接:

update si
set si.AccountNumber = ran.AccountNumber
from Sales_Import si, RetrieveAccountNumber ran
where si.LeadID = ran.LeadID

走：

merge into Sales_Import si
using RetrieveAccountNumber ran on si.LeadID = ran.LeadID 
when matched then update set si.accountnumber = ran.accountnumber;

所有的变体都是更少的琐碎和可以理解的，我个人更喜欢“内部连接”选项。但其中任何一种都可以使用，开发者必须根据自己的需求选择“更好的选项”

从性能的角度来看，使用join的变体更可取:

甲骨文

use

UPDATE suppliers
SET supplier_name = (SELECT customers.customer_name
                     FROM customers
                     WHERE customers.customer_id = suppliers.supplier_id)
WHERE EXISTS (SELECT customers.customer_name
              FROM customers
              WHERE customers.customer_id = suppliers.supplier_id);
