只是作为一个完整的问题，因为我们谈论的是Oracle，这也可以做到:

declare
begin
  for sel in (
    select table2.code, table2.desc
    from table1
    join table2 on table1.value = table2.desc
    where table1.updatetype = 'blah'
  ) loop
    update table1 
    set table1.value = sel.code
    where table1.updatetype = 'blah' and table1.value = sel.desc;    
  end loop;
end;
/

update table1  a 
   set a.col1='Y' 
 where exists(select 1 
                from table2 b
               where a.col1=b.col1 
                 and a.col2=b.col2
             )

该语法在Oracle中无效。你可以这样做:

UPDATE table1 SET table1.value = (SELECT table2.CODE
                                  FROM table2 
                                  WHERE table1.value = table2.DESC)
WHERE table1.UPDATETYPE='blah'
AND EXISTS (SELECT table2.CODE
            FROM table2 
            WHERE table1.value = table2.DESC);

或者你可以这样做:

UPDATE 
(SELECT table1.value as OLD, table2.CODE as NEW
 FROM table1
 INNER JOIN table2
 ON table1.value = table2.DESC
 WHERE table1.UPDATETYPE='blah'
) t
SET t.OLD = t.NEW

这取决于Oracle是否认为内联视图是可更新的 (第二个语句是否可更新取决于列出的一些规则 这里)。

UPDATE (SELECT T.FIELD A, S.FIELD B
FROM TABLE_T T INNER JOIN TABLE_S S
ON T.ID = S.ID)
SET B = A;

A和B是别名字段，不需要指向表。

UPDATE IP_ADMISSION_REQUEST ip1
SET IP1.WRIST_BAND_PRINT_STATUS=0
WHERE IP1.IP_ADM_REQ_ID        =
  (SELECT IP.IP_ADM_REQ_ID
  FROM IP_ADMISSION_REQUEST ip
  INNER JOIN VISIT v
  ON ip.ip_visit_id=v.visit_id
  AND v.pat_id     =3702
  ); `enter code here`
