The column values of existing rows can be changed using the UPDATE command. For example, the following sequence of commands shows the before and after results of giving everyone who is a manager a 10% raise:

SELECT ename, sal FROM emp WHERE job = 'MANAGER';

 ename |   sal
-------+---------
 JONES | 2975.00
 BLAKE | 2850.00
 CLARK | 2450.00
(3 rows)

UPDATE emp SET sal = sal * 1.1 WHERE job = 'MANAGER';

SELECT ename, sal FROM emp WHERE job = 'MANAGER';

 ename |   sal
-------+---------
 JONES | 3272.50
 BLAKE | 3135.00
 CLARK | 2695.00
(3 rows)
