<div><p>It is also possible to update an entire row in one table with values
from a row in another table.</p>
<div class="section"><p>Suppose there is a master class schedule table that needs to be
updated with changes that have been made in a copy of the table. The changes
are made to the work copy and merged into the master table every night. The
two tables have exactly the same columns and one column, CLASS_CODE, is a
unique key column. </p>
<pre><strong>UPDATE</strong> CL_SCHED
<strong>SET</strong> ROW =
(<strong>SELECT</strong> * <strong>FROM</strong> MYCOPY
<strong>WHERE</strong> CL_SCHED.CLASS_CODE = MYCOPY.CLASS_CODE)</pre>
<p>This
update will update all of the rows in CL_SCHED with the values from MYCOPY.</p>
