Hi,

Can anyone tell me what is wrong with this query?
I keep getting the Incorrect syntax near Where" error.

Update Regulars SET LockedBy = , Updt_Rec_UserID = ASHWINI, Updt_Rec_Dt_Time = 11/10/2009 7:13:32 PM,State_ID = (Select State_id from state_lkup where State_nm = 'GEORGIA') Where Regulars_ID = 'WFYAPIZZ'

Thanks in advance

Thanks

I am getting the value in lockedby and
Now, i get the following error:
Incorrect syntax near '7'. Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'Where'.

What is wrong with this?

Update Regulars SET LockedBy = Null,Updt_Rec_UserID = ASHWINI, Updt_Rec_Dt_Time = 11/10/2009 7:33:50 PM,State_ID = (Select State_id from state_lkup where State_nm = 'GEORGIA') Where Regulars_ID = 'IERITLSI'

Thanks in Advance

And of course in this case the date is also a string...
