The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Multi-table UPDATE with a CASE statement

Asked by mpdillon in MS SQL Server

Tags: update, table, case, statement

I need to update one table with the a value from one of two tables depending on a case statement. The table to be updated is the Hdr table. I want to update a field called Fld in the Hdr table. When the value of the ShipToNo in the Hdr table is blank then Fld is equal to the Zip from the CusFil. The Hdr table and the CusFile Table are Joined by Hdr.CusNo = CusFil.CusNo. When the ShipToNo in the Hdr is not blank then Hdr.Fld is equalt to the Zip from the ShipFil. The ShipFil and Hdr tables are joined by Hdr.ShipToNo = ShipFil.ShipToNo.
Here is my attempt to start the update statement.

Update Hdr Set Hdr.Fld =  (Case When Hdr.ShipToNo = '' Then ?Cusfil.Zip else ?ShipFil.Zip end)
Your help in filling in the ?'s would be greatly appreciated.
My guess
?CusFil.CusNo = Select Zip From CusFil where Hdr.CusNo = CusFil.Cusno

?ShipFil.ShipToNo = Select Zip From ShipFil where Hdr.ShipToNo = ShipFil.ShipToNo

Thanks
