Here's what I'm tring to do.

ISBN | Author | Description ISBN | Description

all fields are text

I want to update table1.description with table2 description where table2.ISBN = table1 ISBN

Code:
UPDATE Table1 INNER JOIN Table2
       ON Table1.ISBN = Table2.ISBN

SET    Table1.Description = Table2.Description
