[AccessD] Update Query - Need to Speed It Up

BerichtErwin:

That helped immensely.  Knocked the time down from 8:10 to 1:28. The fields were already indexed.

Much obliged.

Rocky

  put a filter on both fields for <> "" or <> 0 could speed thing up.
  This for updating only the records that are not already OK.
  This resulting that you will update less than 2,5M records.
  if necesary put indexes on fields..

  Updating is slower than filtering...

    Dear List:

    I am running an update query on a table with 2,500,000 records and it's taking just a bit too long for the my and the client's liking.  
    The SQL is:

    UPDATE tblInvoiceDetail SET tblInvoiceDetail.fldInvoiceDetailPPV = """", tblInvoiceDetail.fldInvoiceDetailVariancePercent = 0;

    It's setting one field to blank the other to 0.

    Is there a way to make it run any faster?


    MTIA,
