Thanks all - lots of examples, let me detail this to make it a little clearer.
db1.tblMembers (empNum, empLogon): this table contains a record for every user
db2.tblTemp (empNum, newLogon): this table contains a list of new logons as the logon format is changing
db2.tblBooking (empLogon): this is the booking table, I need to update the empLogon (varchar) to contain the newLogon from tblTemp where tblTemp.empNum equal to tblMembers.empNum.
E.G. Current values:
tblBooking:
smithj
smithj
hillp
tblTemp:
2132, john.smith
2133, peter.hill
tblMembers (in different db)
2132, smithj
2133, hillp
After the update the values will be:
tblBooking:
john.smith
john.smith
peter.hill
Thanks!
