    So the (corrected) example code

    update

    a1

    set

    col = a2.col

    from

    table1 as a1,

    table2 as a2

    where

    a1.col = a2.col

    This will update table1.col to with the value of table2.col when they are already the same... the obvious conclusion is that the columns in the original question (coulmn, colum1, column and column2) are not typos! 😀

    Actually, I've worked in places where that would be entirely believable! :w00t:
