  • RE: How to construct set-based update stmts

    I believe you're looking for this:

    UPDATE tu1

    SET

    first = tu2.first,

    last = tu2.last,

    local_ID = tu2.local_id

    FROM

    #Test_Users AS tu1

    JOIN

    (SELECT

    *

    FROM

    #Test_Users

    WHERE

    org_id = 50

    ) AS tu2

    ONtu1.local_id = tu2.local_id

    where

    tu1.org_id = 50

  • RE: DeadLock

    Answer: No and no.

    This code, as is, will not deadlock independently. There's no transaction calls.

    What is the serverwide setting for isolation?
