    ORDER BY in an UPDATE is only possible in a subquery and then you would have to use TOP.

    All that not-with-standing, I wish the OP would post some data and table definitions. It would make it easier for us all to answer the post.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
