SQLite - UPDATE Query
SQLite - UPDATE Query
SQLite UPDATE Query is used to modify the existing records in a table. You can use WHERE clause with UPDATE query to update selected rows, otherwise all the rows would be updated.
Syntax
Following is the basic syntax of UPDATE query with WHERE clause.
UPDATE table_name SET column1 = value1, column2 = value2...., columnN = valueN WHERE [condition];
You can combine N number of conditions using AND or OR operators.
Example
Consider COMPANY table with the following records −
ID NAME AGE ADDRESS SALARY ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- 1 Paul 32 Capfornia 20000.0 2 Allen 25 Texas 15000.0 3 Teddy 23 Norway 20000.0 4 Mark 25 Rich-Mond 65000.0 5 David 27 Texas 85000.0 6 Kim 22 South-Hall 45000.0 7 James 24 Houston 10000.0
Following is an example, which will update ADDRESS for a customer whose ID is 6.
sqpte> UPDATE COMPANY SET ADDRESS = Texas WHERE ID = 6;
Now, COMPANY table will have the following records.
ID NAME AGE ADDRESS SALARY ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- 1 Paul 32 Capfornia 20000.0 2 Allen 25 Texas 15000.0 3 Teddy 23 Norway 20000.0 4 Mark 25 Rich-Mond 65000.0 5 David 27 Texas 85000.0 6 Kim 22 Texas 45000.0 7 James 24 Houston 10000.0
If you want to modify all ADDRESS and SALARY column values in COMPANY table, you do not need to use WHERE clause and UPDATE query will be as follows −
sqpte> UPDATE COMPANY SET ADDRESS = Texas , SALARY = 20000.00;
Now, COMPANY table will have the following records −
ID NAME AGE ADDRESS SALARY ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- 1 Paul 32 Texas 20000.0 2 Allen 25 Texas 20000.0 3 Teddy 23 Texas 20000.0 4 Mark 25 Texas 20000.0 5 David 27 Texas 20000.0 6 Kim 22 Texas 20000.0 7 James 24 Texas 20000.0Advertisements
