Hi NBK,
You can use the below UPD query to update the mark3 field
with maximum marks of Mark1 or Mark2 fields.
Update db_name.Tab_name
set mark3 = case
when mark1>mark2
then mark1
else mark2
end

Answer / tdguy
Above answer is correct. Update statement would be the best
option (with case).
Update tablename
set mark3 = case when mark1>mark2
then mark1 else mark2 end;
