CodePudding user response:

Insert statements won't allow you to change values from an existing table, they only allow you to add brand new rows to a table. In your case you may want to use an UPDATE statement.

In order to get matches between the two tables, you can apply a JOIN operation within the UPDATE statement, using the condition you pointed in your post description.

UPDATE     tab2 
INNER JOIN tab1
        ON tab1.Id = tab2.T1_id
SET tab2.expiry_date = tab1.expiry_date;
