I have an access data base with three tables named DD, Export , and RPL
I have the result of a inner join betweent EXPORT AND DD which is working fine
Now with those results I want to update a third table RPL which is currently empty but has those fields to be populate for example RPL.[Hotel ID] should be the Hotel ID that results from the query below
SELECT Export.[Hotel ID], Export.[Property Name], Export.[Room Type ID] AS [Parent Room Type ID], Export.[Room Type Code] AS [Parent Room Type Code], Export.[Rate Plan ID] AS [Parent Rate Plan ID], Export.[Expedia Collect Rate Plan Code] AS [Parent Rate Plan Code EC], Export.[Hotel Collect Rate Plan Code] AS [Parent Rate Plan Code HC], Export.[Rate Plan Name] AS [Parent Rate Plan Name] INTO RPL FROM Export INNER JOIN DD ON Export.ExKey = DD.DDKey;
The previous query copies the result into a new table, i want to use the one that exists already Any help it is appreciated it
Thank you

As your example is not clear, I will write a simpler one to clarify how to update a table use the data joined by other tables,
now there are three tables ATable,BTable,CTable, the colums of ATable is id,value1,value2, the columns of BTable is id,value1, the colums of CTable is id,value2,
now we will update ATable by use the data joined by the B and C, the SQL is like below:
update ATable a set value1 = t.value1, value2 = t.value2
from (
select
b.id,
b.value1,
c.value2
from
BTable b
join
CTable c on b.id = c.id
) t where a.id = t.id
