I've been looking for atomic upserts, and the INSERT INTO ... ON DUPLICATE fits the bill nicely. I would not have know about the syntax if I hadn't found this article on google. Thanks for posting!

The warning count is passed back via the client protocol, but whether the tool you're using pays attention, and whether it displays anything if there are warnings, varies.

I have a situation here where i have in a table 2 rows like---> row1 Branch Pub_Cod Bud_alloted W_I_P Am_Paid Old_budget abc 411 10000 0 0 0 row2 Branch Pub_Cod Bud_alloted W_I_P Am_Paid Old_budget xyz 422 0 0 0 0 Whe way i want the query to work is, i want to swap the Bud_alloted value i.e 1lakh from branch abc into 2nd row's bud_alloted which is 0 now. And after swapping the value to 2nd row's bud_alloted, in the 1st row the value 1lakh should be set in the old_budget column i.e something like this after swapping--> row1 Branch Pub_Cod Bud_alloted W_I_P Am_Paid Old_budget abc 411 0 0 0 100000 row2 Branch Pub_Cod Bud_alloted W_I_P Am_Paid Old_budget xyz 422 100000 0 0 0 forgot to add 1 last bit here my branch,pub_cod is primary whereas am_paid and pub_cod are index key. can this be achieved in mysql? Thanks regards, ajos:) Hi Xaprb,
Good article. I have a situation here where i have in a table 2 rows like—>
row1
Branch Pub_Cod Bud_alloted W_I_P Am_Paid Old_budget
abc 411 10000 0 0 0

row2
Branch Pub_Cod Bud_alloted W_I_P Am_Paid Old_budget
xyz 422 0 0 0 0

Whe way i want the query to work is, i want to swap the Bud_alloted value i.e 1lakh from branch abc into 2nd row’s bud_alloted which is 0 now. And after swapping the value to 2nd row’s bud_alloted, in the 1st row the value 1lakh should be set in the old_budget column i.e something like this after swapping–>

row1
Branch Pub_Cod Bud_alloted W_I_P Am_Paid Old_budget
abc 411 0 0 0 100000

row2
Branch Pub_Cod Bud_alloted W_I_P Am_Paid Old_budget
xyz 422 100000 0 0 0

forgot to add 1 last bit here my branch,pub_cod is primary whereas am_paid and pub_cod are index key.
can this be achieved in mysql?
Thanks
regards,
ajos:)

However my situtation is slightly different. I have 2 databases with the same table structure and so on. Now I want to combine the data in 2 databases into 1,i.e merging them. Now if I want to merge two table that have a unique key (auto-increment) if duplicate key is found instead of updating the old records with the new one, I would like to insert the new one with the unique being auto incremented. How would you do that ? Many thanks, Minh Hoang Hi Xarpb,

I've got Talend running - too complex for me. I'm using scripts at the moment but will have another look. Downloaded the Toolkit and will have a play. Thnks for the advice.

Also MySQL Archiver from the MySQL Toolkit. Take a look at Kettle — it’s an ETL system for MySQL. Also MySQL Archiver from the MySQL Toolkit.
