Error MySQL Update Inner Join tables query

Question

I have no idea what the problem is. Using MySQL 5.0 I get a compile error when attempting to run the following MySQL update query:

UPDATE  b
SET b.mapx = g.latitude,
    b.mapy = g.longitude
FROM business AS b
INNER JOIN business_geocode g ON b.business_id = g.business_id
WHERE (b.mapx = '' OR b.mapx = 0) AND
      g.latitude > 0

All the field names are correct. Any thoughts?

Hello @kartik,

Try this:

UPDATE business AS b
INNER JOIN business_geocode AS g ON b.business_id = g.business_id
SET b.mapx = g.latitude,
  b.mapy = g.longitude
WHERE  (b.mapx = '' or b.mapx = 0) and
  g.latitude > 0

Hope it helps!!
Thank you!
