>A follow up question, if I may, please. The above SQL Update will update only those records in table TableA that have child records in TableB, correct? So if I wanted to update ALL records in TableA, would it be correct to change JOIN with LEFT JOIN then? And then to do NVL(ST.SUM_TOT,0) instead of just ST.SUM?

That sounds right to me.
