Weird. Do you have this right now? :

$query = "SELECT table.column1 FROM table";
$result = mysql_query($query);
while($column = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
$column1 = $column['column1'];
$update = "UPDATE test SET column2 = ''
WHERE column2 = '$column1'";
mysql_query($update);
}

I did a little test for you with a customer table and a customer1 table,
looking like this:

customer:
id name
=============
1 john

customer1:
id name
=============
1 pete
2 john
3 ruben

I used the following query:
DELETE customer1 from customer1,customer WHERE customer1.name=customer.name;

This deletes the row with id=2 and name=john from the table customer1.
