Using Distinct in SQL Update

Question

Here is the Select I need to convert to an Update:

SELECT DISTINCT f.SectionID, f.Name, v.Enabled
FROM SETTING_VALUE v
INNER JOIN SETTING s ON v.SettingID =          


        

Answer 1

Option 1: Use a temporary table to hold your initial query results, then update based on the query results.

Option 2:

Insert into SETTING_VALUE
(SectionID, Name, Enabled)
SELECT DISTINCT f.SectionID, f.Name, v.Enabled
FROM SETTING_VALUE v
INNER JOIN SETTING s ON v.SettingID = s.SettingID
INNER JOIN LU_FIELD f ON f.FieldID = s.FieldID
WHERE v.DisplayValue LIKE '%Miami%'
AND f.ControlName LIKE '%City%'
