Not sure what I'm missing here...

I've tried a few ways to go about this, such as

UPDATE phone_book SET first_name = "Mystery"; UPDATE phone_book SET last_name = "Person";

I thought if all else fails even this code would take care of the challenge but still nothing.

Hey Brian Diaz! You are super close and while that would work, I think for this challenge it is wanting you to update both of them with one statement. For example say you want to update a products name and price: UPDATE product SET product_name="Coffee", product_price=3.99; List out what you are wanting to be changed with a comma between each.

Hope this helps! Happy coding :D

This did the trick, I tried to one line the code earlier but was unaware about the comma. Thanks!
