How to restore Values to Table based on some Query

Hi,
I have a table called A and another Table Called B.
A table has the following Column and Values
ID One Two Three
---
10 test01 test02 test03
11 test11 test12 test13
12 test21 test22 test23
13 test31 test32 test33
B table has the following Column and Values
ID One Two Three
---
10 abcd01 abcd02 abcd03
11 abcd11 abcd12 abcd13
12 abcd21 abcd22
13 abcd31 abcd32 abcd33
I want to take a backup of Column Three where ID in(11,12,13). I know
using BCP utility i can take a backup of Table A of Column Three.
Following is the Query
"select Three,ID from [Test].dbo.A where ID in(11,12,13)" queryout
c:\try.txt -U sa -P ***
and then i want to restore it in to the Table B's Column Three by
specifying some Query. Meaning i want to restore the values to the
Table B's Column Three where ID is the ID which is obtained in
Backup[Table A]. How can i do this? If anybody knows the solution
Please Let me know to solve it.
Thanks,
Vinoth
Vinoth@.gsdindia.comHi
I am not totally sure what you require, as it sounds like a simple update
statement would do what you require e.g.
UPDATE B
SET [Three] = A.[Three]
FROM TABLEB B
JOIN TABLEA A ON A.id = B.id and B.id in ( 11, 12, 13 )
If you do choose to BCP the data out then your would probably need to load
the data into a staging table.
You may want to show what the final states of table a and b are.

Vinoth@.gsdindia.comYou don't need to extract it to a file. If you want to update B from A,
just do:
update B
set
Three = (select A.Three from A where A.ID = B.ID)
where
ID in (11, 12, 13)

The table A will be in One database of Some Server and Table B will
be in Some other Database of Some other Server. How can i do it now?
Thanks,
Vinoth|||Use 4-part naming (after adding a linked server):
update B
set
Three = (select A.Three from OtherServer.OtherDB.dbo.A as A where A.ID =
B.ID)
where
ID in (11, 12, 13)
