Hi All,

Can IUpdate commands handle computed expressions?

For example, say I have a feature class with a datetime property "MyDate"

Can I issue an IUpdate command on that feature class to set:

MyDate = CurrentDate()

with a filter: MyDate NULL

is this possible?

Hi Jackie,

You cannot update a field based on a calculation since the API does not offer you a method to do that.
The update command requires a FDO property value, where you may set the name and the value, but no expression may be passed, however it something definitively nice to have.

Regards,
Romy.
