Using ms sql 2000
I have 2 tables.
I have a table which has information regarding a computer scan. Each
record in this table has a column called MAC which is the unique ID for

each Scan. The table in question holds the various scan results of
every scan from different computers. I have an insert statement that
works however I am having troulbe getting and update statement out of
it, not sure if I'm using the correct method to insert and thats why or

if I'm just missing something. Anyway the scan results is stored as an

XML document(@iTree) so I have a temp table that holds the relevent
info from that. Here is my Insert statement for the temporary table.

INSERT INTO #temp
SELECT * FROM openxml(@iTree,
'ComputerScan/scans/scan/scanattributes/scanattribute', 1)
WITH(
ID nvarchar(50) './@ID',
ParentID nvarchar(50) './@ParentID',
Name nvarchar(50) './@Name',
scanattribute nvarchar(50) '.'
)

Now here is the insert statement for the table I am having trouble
with.

INSERT INTO tblScanDetail (MAC, GUIID, GUIParentID, ScanAttributeID,
ScanID, AttributeValue, DateCreated, LastModified)
SELECT @MAC, #temp.ID, #temp.ParentID,
tblScanAttribute.ScanAttributeID, tblScan.ScanID,
#temp.scanattribute, DateCreated = getdate(),
LastModified =
getdate()
FROM tblScan, tblScanAttribute JOIN #temp ON
tblScanAttribute.Name =
#temp.Name

If there is a way to do this without the temporary table that would be
great, but I haven't figured a way around it yet, if anyone has any
ideas that would be great, thanks.
