I was pointed (thanks to Serge Rielau) to the MERGE statement as the
solution to a certain updating problem I had. It works wonderfully.

Where is the documentation for this statement!?! I spent an hour at the
IBM site :
(http://www-3.ibm.com/cgi-bin/db2www/...bs.d2w/en_main)
looking for the documentation, and found nothing, in any of the manuals
I looked in.

I would appreciate a pointer to the the IBM site with the documentation.
