Hello,I made a stored procedure for a purpose unrelated to the problem at hand. Now, in this stored procedure, I created a table variable. In this table variable, I need to copy all the values in one column into another column. How may I go about doing that?Thank you. |

Table variables would behave the same as any other table for this task.declare @mytablea table(cola varchar(20),colb varchar(20))insert into @mytablea(cola) select 'testing'update @mytablea set colb=colaselect colb from @mytableaMike"oh, that monkey is going to pay" |

Hi,Yes, I meant copying columns from a table variable to the same table variable.The above query worked. I don't know why but I thought it was something more complicated.Thank you! |
