I am trying to update a field on a record in a table. Here is the statement I created:
UPDATE pdata SET pvalue = ( SELECT pvalue FROM pdata WHERE pentrytime =1207022400 ) WHERE pentrytime =1175400000; However, I get the following error: |#1093 - You can't specify target table 'pdata' for update in FROM clause What can I use to fix this? | -- Albert E.
