JB writes "Hi,

I have 2 tables, one called assets the other called codes,

I need to update 5 fields in the assets table using data I would have to extract from the codes table and then substring.

Heres what I have so far to update the 1st field, but I've never worked in DB2 before and can't seem to get this working.

Update ASSETS

SET ASSETS.WEARMETH = SUBSTRING(CODES.SHORTDESC,5,1)
FROM
CODES
WHERE
CODES.CODETYPE = 4 AND CODES.CODE = AS000000.ASSETGRP

DESPERATLEY SEEKING THE CORRECT SYNTAX"
