Right I have a mysql DB for me forum and a couple of people seem to have become deleted  .
I have backups of the members table and can insert that no problem. The problem is with posts, basically they are associated with their poster by a member id column thingy. When a user is deleted the member id coloumn is set to -1.
What I need to do is run a query to change the member id to 604 where the username is say henry.
I cant for the life of me work out how to do it though.
Any ideas? |

Something like this should work  (not an expert though. the idea is all right, but the code isn't  ):
| Code: | REPLACE INTO tablename
SET fieldname=604
WHERE fieldname='Henry'; |

Asked on WHT and got the answer...
UPDATE yabbse_messages SET id_member = 604 WHERE postername = 'BOB';
Works fine |
