Обновление строк таблицы в postgres с использованием подзапроса

Используя postgres 8.4, моя цель - обновить существующую таблицу:

CREATE TABLE public.dummy
(
  address_id SERIAL,
  addr1 character(40),
  addr2 character(40),
  city character(25),
  state character(2),
  zip character(5),
  customer boolean,
  supplier boolean,
  partner boolean

)
WITH (
  OIDS=FALSE
);

Изначально я тестировал свой запрос с помощью инструкции insert:

insert into address customer,supplier,partner
SELECT  
    case when cust.addr1 is not null then TRUE else FALSE end customer, 
    case when suppl.addr1 is not null then TRUE else FALSE end supplier,
    case when partn.addr1 is not null then TRUE else FALSE end partner
from (
    SELECT *
        from address) pa
    left outer join cust_original cust
        on (pa.addr1=cust.addr1 and pa.addr2=cust.addr2 and pa.city=cust.city 
            and pa.state=cust.state and substring(cust.zip,1,5) = pa.zip  )
    left outer join supp_original suppl 
        on (pa.addr1=suppl.addr1 and pa.addr2=suppl.addr2 and pa.city=suppl.city 
                and pa.state=suppl.state and pa.zip = substring(suppl.zip,1,5))
    left outer join partner_original partn
        on (pa.addr1=partn.addr1 and pa.addr2=partn.addr2 and pa.city=partn.city
                  and pa.state=partn.state and pa.zip = substring(partn.zip,1,5) )
where pa.address_id = address_id

быть новичком. Я не могу преобразовать в инструкцию обновления, т.е. обновлять существующие строки со значениями, возвращаемыми выражением select. Любая помощь приветствуется.

    address=subquery.address,
    partn=subquery.partn
FROM (SELECT address_id, customer, address, partn
      FROM  /* big hairy SQL */ ...) AS subquery
WHERE dummy.address_id=subquery.address_id;

UPDATE

SET 
  column1 = t2.column1

WITH subquery AS (

update json_source_tabcol as d

from information_schema.columns as a 
where a.table_name =d.table_name 
and a.table_schema = d.table_schema 
and a.column_name = d.column_name;
