Sorry I must not have been clear enough.
I want to insert the content of data1 into data2, as "data1 + data2"

Got it using a combination of your two posts.
UPDATE movie_likes ml, movies m
SET ml.data2 = CONCAT(m.data1,ml.data2)
WHERE ml.id = m.id
UPDATE movie_likes ml, movies m
SET ml.data2 = CONCAT(m.data1,ml.data2)
WHERE ml.id = m.id
Thanks, sorry missed to point about updating (too much haste), cheers, Paul

from table1
inner join table2 on table1.id = table2.id
not much else to go on.
