Update COntract
Set DispositionDate = (SELECT Disp_Date,Contract_ID
FROM LinkedServer.Closed_Contract
where Disp_Date is not Null)
This Query gives me an Error as
Only one expression can be specified in the select list when the subquery is

this Query in a better way as the select Query retrieves more then 200,000
records.

What is the purpose of Contract_ID in the inner SELECT?
Look at the query you're running. You're saying, basically, "... SET
some_date = (SELECT '20041110', 5) ... " ... what is that ,5 for? What is
the SET statement supposed to do with it?
