How can I do an UPDATE statement with JOIN in SQL Server?

SQL

I need to update this table in SQL Server with data from its 'parent' table, see below:

Table: sale

id (int)
udid (int)
assid (int)

 

 

Table: ud

id (int)
assid (int)

 

sale.assid contains the correct value to update ud.assid.

Yes, it is possible to do an UPDATE statement with JOIN in SQL server. The JOIN clauses can be used in the UPDATE statement to perform a cross table update.



Below is the syntax of the  UPDATE JOIN clause:



UPDATE 


    table1


SET 


    table1.col1 = table2.col2,


    table1.col2 = expression,


    ...   


FROM 


    table1


    [INNER | LEFT] JOIN table2 ON join_predicate


WHERE 


    Where_predicate;
