[dba-SQLServer]A real Newbie Queston re:updating a Field in a Table

Here is an example - I have a prospect and a customer table.  Join them by
their common field, cust_no.
Update the field you want to update (I used udf12) to the desired value.


update dbo.prospect
set dbo.prospect.udf12='myvalue'
FROM  dbo.prospect INNER JOIN
      dbo.customer ON dbo.prospect.cust_no = dbo.customer.cust_no

I have two tables which are inner joined on two fields.  One of the tables
contains a flag field.  I want to update the flag field only where records
in the two tables are the same.
