related_category table
[IMG]http://www.ephpsolutions.com/scud/rrr/related_category.gif[/IMG]
I want to get cat_name from products_category and want to store in rel_cat_name in related_category tabel. and the query should be only one.
Not sure how will it works.
I thought it would be something like:
UPDATE related_category
SET related_category.rel_cat_name =
(
SELECT product_category.cat_name FROM product_category
INNER JOIN related_category
ON related_category.rel_cat_id = product_category.cat_id
)
But it doesn't works,
Please assist. Thanks in advance
