    I have 2 lookup tables. I need to get and replace the values from the lookup tables for the below data.

    Lookup Table 1

    LT_ID Desc

    Cat_Code Category

    Prod_Code Product

    Lookup Table 2

    LT_ID Desc

    Drama__Q__M Drama

    Comedy__Q__M Comedy

    Blue__Q_Ray BlueRay

    I have another table with the below information

    1 Changed Cat_code to Drama__Q__M From Null

    2 Changed Product_code to Blue__Q__Ray From Null

    3 Changed Cat_code to Comedy__Q__M From Drama__Q__M

    from the above I need an output like below

    1 Changed Category to Drama From Null

    2 Changed Product to BlueRay From Null

    3 Changed Category to Comedy From Drama

    Can anyone please provide the solution for this?

    Thank you in advance

    2. Sample data in the form of INSERT INTO statements

    3. Expected results based on the sample data
