Subj:   Re: Update/Insert (Upsert)
 
From:   Narayan Murthy



Yes the insert/Select will not work since it is considered as a complex upsert statement since there are restrictions on what can be used with the upsert syntax.

Here is an alternative using bteq's .IF construct.

     update t1 set b =2 where a=1;
     .if activitycount=0 then goto ins_sel_label
     sel * from t1;
     .quit
     .label ins_sel_label
     ins t1 sel 1,1;
     sel * from t1;
