IF EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sysobjects WHERE [name]='info_company')
DROP TABLE info_company
BEGIN
CREATE TABLE info_company(

com_name nvarchar(120) NOT NULL,

com_create_time datetime NOT NULL,
is_famous BIT  DEFAULT(0) NOT NULL,
com_level INT DEFAULT(1) NOT NULL ,
com_remark nvarchar(120) NULL

　　需求：在表ifno_company中可能有一些这样的帐号
ABCD,CD两个帐号的主帐号是B，B的主帐号是A
EFG，G的主帐号是F，F的主帐号是E

需要将CD的主帐号更新为A，G的主帐号更新为E
请写一个通用的sql语句进行更新。

分析：这个题最难的还是找到父账号，如果使用普通的 SQL来写，很难完成，一次想到了才有Case when then end 语句来作为条件判断。

代码如下：

UPDATE  ic
SET ic.link_com_id = CASE WHEN ic2.link_com_id  IS NULL THEN ic2.company_id ELSE ic2.link_com_id END
FROM info_company ic
LEFT JOIN info_company ic2  ON ic2.company_id=ic.link_com_id
WHERE ic.link_com_id IS NOT NULL

非常简洁的写法，可是性能上面损失的却多了点，不知道是福可以优化下？
