Subject:   PROC SQL Update Question
Content-Type:   text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

I'm trying to update the values in one table by the values in another table.

***************** Where I got the sample code ***************** http://support.sas.com/documentation/onlinedoc/91pdf/sasdoc_91/base_sqlproc_6992.pdf

PG 153

***************** My code ***************** PROC SQL; UPDATE CALIBRATION_TRANS AS A SET MaxTrial= ( ( SELECT MAX(CalibrationBlock_Sample) FROM Split_char_calibrationblock Group by Subject ) AS B WHERE A.SUBJECT=B.SUBJECT ); QUIT;

***************************************************** Right now I keep getting the following error *****************************************************

ERROR 22-322: Syntax error, expecting one of the following: !, !!, &, ), *, **, +, -, /, <, <=, <>, =, >, >=, ?, AND, BETWEEN, CONTAINS, EQ, EQT, GE, GET, GT, GTT, IN, IS, LE, LET, LIKE, LT, LTT, NE, NET, NOT, NOTIN, OR, ^, ^=, |, ||, ~, ~=.

ERROR 76-322: Syntax error, statement will be ignored.

What am I doing wrong?
