    Can we update another table while dealing with a table

    I had two tables BALANCE and CUSTOMER
    CUSTOMER: ID, Name, OldBalance
    BALANCE: BID, ID, NewBalance, PaidAmount, RemainBalance

    I need to update the OldBalance column of Customer table by putting the value of RemainBalance in it.


    Need Help

    Although this CAN be done, I would suggest you rethink how you are tracking your transactions. It is far better to maintain a table of each adjustment and then do queries against that table to determine balances.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
