Storages & Files Update
Update method

Updates the stream with the record contents. The stream and record position remains the same - over the same record.

Syntax:

variable = object.Update

Parameters:

returned value: Boolean success indicator.

Examples:

Set sf = Server.CreateObject("newObjects.utilctls.SFMain")
Set file = sf.CreateFile(Server.MapPath("fill.rec"))
Set rec = Server.CreateObject("newObjects.utilctls.SFRecord")
rec.AddField "Field1", vbString, 20
rec.AddField "Field2", vbLong
rec.BindTo file

rec.MoveFirst
For I = 1 To 10
  rec("Field1").Value = "Value " & I
  rec("Field2").Value = I
  rec.Update
  rec.MoveNext
  Response.Write "Writing record " & I & "<BR>"
Next
rec.UnBind

Remarks:

It will be helpful to compare the sample above with the sample in the Write method's page.

The update operation is implemented in a way very similar to the similar methods in ADO and many other DB manipulation API/components. In fact after defining and binding the record to the stream the usage of the SFRecord object follows the same pattern.

Applies to: SFRecord object
