Hi Jon

In your select query you are using like. In your update you used =. Just in case you missed it, the % at the end of m.cSelectedJob would make the update fail.
You added the dbo schema to your select query, but not to the update query. If the default schema is not dbo, and the default schema has a MasterCostCodeList, your update would not happen in dbo. I'd include dbo in the update query too.

Glad to see you're passing parameters via ? as it goes a long way toward preventing SQL Injection Attacks.

UPDATE dbo.MasterCostCodeList SET Active = 1 where level1 = ?m.cSelectedJob
