Adding Mass Descriptions via SQL?

[jsnacker]

Hello SQL geniuses,

Is there an easy way to insert a generic product description into the 'product_descriptions' table only if there is none?

I don't know SQL too well, but I'm sure it's something like...
IF 'products_description' = null
THEN INSERT INTO 'products_description'

or something? hahah

Any help would be greatly appreciated...

What exactly is the *business problem* you're trying to solve?

I just need an SQL script to look for a description of a product, and if there is none.. 'insert generic description'.

If you are looking to insert and re-use some text in many product descriptions you could use the boilerplate text concept:
