Syntax: UPDATE table_name SET column_name1 = new_value1, column_name2 = new_value2 ---- WHERE condition; Here table_name is the name of the table, column_name is the column whose value you want to update, new_value is the updated value, WHERE is used to filter for specific data.
Yep. And it would be possible to use a check constraint to ensure that only one row exists (using Celko's technique here sqlmonster.com/Uwe/Forum.aspx/ms-sql-server/3453/…)
UPDATE your_table SET likes = NULL
or if your likes
column does not allow NULL
:
UPDATE your_table SET likes = ''
Some SQL tools that are used for executing DB queries prevent updates on ALL records (queries without a where
clause) by default. You can configure that and remove that savety setting or you can add a where
clause that is true
for all records and update all anyway like this:
UPDATE your_table
SET likes = NULL
WHERE 1 = 1
If you compare with NULL
then you also need the IS
operator. Example:
UPDATE your_table
SET likes = NULL
WHERE likes IS NOT NULL
because comparing NULL
with the equal operator (=
) returns UNKNOWN. But the IS
operator can handle NULL
.
