Is this possible?

i want something like:


update _featured_options set 
Value = '15' WHERE OptionName = 'Bestsellers',
Value = '16' WHERE OptionName = 'FeaturedRelease'

... except something that actually works.

cheers,
Alex

Doh! Sorry, I mucked up the subject. Silly me. Edited now.

Anyway that query gives me an error:


Server: Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 3
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'case'.

... Hmmmm :o/
