Join two tables in Update statement [T-SQL]

Two tables can be easily joined during an update, similar to a join used in a select statement. This comes in handy specially when one table needs to be updated based on a condition in another table. Below is one such example.

UPDATE C

SET C.permanentAddress='#000, Marine Drive, Galle, Sri Lanka'

FROM Customer AS C INNER JOIN users AS U

ON U.userId = C.customerId

WHERE U.loginName LIKE('%ashaamil%')


That's pretty much about it !
