Updates Microsoft Access data.

Syntax

Update-Access [parameters]

Remarks

The Update-Access cmdlet allows you to use a syntax similar to SQL UPDATE statements to update Microsoft Access data.

$conn = Connect-Access -DataSource 'C:\my.accdb'
Update-Access -Connection $conn -Table "Orders" -Columns @("ShipCity") -Values @("Raleigh") -Id "10261"

The Where parameter can also be used to specify the primary key of the table:

Update-Access -Connection $conn -Table "Orders" -Columns @("ShipCity") -Values @("Raleigh") -Where "Id = '10261'"

The primary key can also be passed to the cmdlet along the pipeline:

Select-Access -Connection $conn -Table Orders -Where "ShipCountry = 'USA'" | Update-Access -Columns @("ShipCountry") -Values @("USA 2")
