以下带有FROM关键字的语句用于使用联接更新多个行

UPDATE users 
set users.DivisionId=divisions.DivisionId
from divisions join users on divisions.Name=users.Division

最简单的方法是使用SQL2005中引入的公共表表达式（CTE）

with cte as
(select u.assid col1 ,s.assid col2 from ud u inner join sale s on u.id = s.udid)
update cte set col1=col2

标准的SQL方法是

UPDATE ud
SET assid = (SELECT assid FROM sale s WHERE ud.id=s.id)

在SQL Server上，可以使用联接

UPDATE ud
SET assid = s.assid
FROM ud u
JOIN sale s ON u.id=s.id

Teradata Aster提供了实现目标的另一种有趣方式：

MERGE INTO ud --what table should be updated
USING sale -- from what table/relation update info should be taken
ON ud.id = sale.udid --join condition
WHEN MATCHED THEN 
    UPDATE SET ud.assid = sale.assid; -- how to update

在MS ACCESS中：

UPDATE ud 
INNER JOIN sale ON ud.id = sale.udid
SET ud.assid = sale.assid;

UPDATE tblAppraisalBasicData
SET tblAppraisalBasicData.ISCbo=1
FROM tblAppraisalBasicData SI INNER JOIN  aaa_test RAN ON SI.EmpID = RAN.ID
