Hi,
I have a table called Past with 4 columns(Number,WW,Goal,Eng) and in Number column has 53 rows, 1,2,3 - 53. Now i need to update the 53rd row with the following code and it works. Since i dont know how to combine this i update them separately.

Update Past
set WW = ('WW'+convert(varchar(10),datepart(wk,getdate())-1))
WHERE Number = '53'

Update Past
set Goal = (Select Eng_Goal from AverageEngTime)
WHERE Number = '53'

Update Past
set Eng = (SELECT ((Mon_Day + Mon_Night + Tue_Day + Tue_Night + Wed_Day + Wed_Night + Thu_Day + Thu_Night + Fri_Day + Fri_Night + Sat_Day + Sat_Night + Sun_Day + Sun_night)* 100/168) FROM AverageEngTime where Shifts = 'Average')
WHERE Number = '53'

Now, whenever i execute, I want my row 52 to be updated with data from row 53 and row 51 with data from row 52 and so on until row 1 with data from row 2. Meaning i just want to update new data for row 53 and other rows should be updated with the data from next line. How do i do that? Please help..Thanks

[code]Update p1
set p1.WW = CASE
WHEN p2.Number IS NULL
THEN ('WW'+convert(varchar(10),datepart(wk,getdate())-1))
ELSE p2.WW
END,
p1.Goal = CASE
WHEN p2.Number IS NULL
THEN (Select Eng_Goal from AverageEngTime)
ELSE p2.Goal
END,
p1.Eng = CASE
WHEN p2.Number IS NULL
THEN (SELECT ((Mon_Day + Mon_Night + Tue_Day + Tue_Night + Wed_Day + Wed_Night + Thu_Day + Thu_Night + Fri_Day + Fri_Night + Sat_Day + Sat_Night + Sun_Day + Sun_night)* 100/168) FROM AverageEngTime where Shifts = 'Average')
ELSE p2.Eng
END
FROM Past p1
LEFT OUTER JOIN Past p2
ON p1.Number=p2.Number-1[/code]
