UPDATE(1p)                                              User Contributed Perl Documentation                                             UPDATE(1p)

NAME
       update -- command line setting of Interchange databases

VERSION
       1.0

SYNOPSIS
          update -c catalog [-f field -k key [-t table] value]

DESCRIPTION
       Interchange's "update" is a rudimentary method of directly setting the DBM files (not the ASCII files) of a Interchange DBM database.

       NOTE: This command DOES NOT APPLY TO SQL databases. They have their own command line monitors that are more flexible.

OPTIONS
       -c name
           Sets the catalog for which "update" operates. It reads the catalog.cfg file to retrieve database settings.

       -f field
           The name of the field to set.

       -n name
           The name of the table to set. If the table is not a DBM database the "update" program will terminate with an error.
