MySQL Update and Sort Queries

hi all, 1) Question on UPDATE ---------------------------- My situation is this: I want to update Table1 with values that can be found in Table2.. in short, I would like to do the following: $query = "update Table1, Table2 set Table1.field1 = Table2.field2 where Table1.no = Table2.no"; however, only MySQL 4.0.4 allows multiple updates and mine is 3.23.54... is there a way to achieve the same effect in one MySQL statement but WITHOUT using this multiple update technique? 2) Question on SORT ------------------------- I would like to retrive my data from the database in the order which I had inserted it in.. is there a way to tell MySQL NOT to sort it in a certain way?? apparently, the result set i got seem to be sorted according to NAME although I did NOT append my query with an "ORDER BY"... i'm using phpMyAdmin to view my database records and they are in the order which I inserted them in.. i would like to see this order too when i issue a SELECT on it.. how can I do this? $query2 = "select * from GUEST where Hotel = 'PPH'"; Thank you so much! I look forward to hearing from you! Hwee :o)
