I'm trying to replace the first NULL or ' ' value in a column with another string value.
I'm 100% sure my syntax is wrong. So far it looks like this:
UPDATE table_name SET NULL=new_value WHERE column='' OR column IS NULL
What am I missing here?
Should be new_value = NULL
whereas you had NULL=new_Value
. Column name should come first. [Assuming new_value is your column name]
UPDATE table_name SET new_value=NULL WHERE column='' OR column IS NULL
------^ //Order was interchanged
UPDATE table_name SET column='new_value' WHERE column='' OR column IS NULL
