I figured out a way to do this after reading the 'Database Tips and
Tricks' PowerPoint. The feature-based method worked for me.

        Subject: [fme] SQL UPDATE
        
        

        Hello, 

        I am having trouble figuring out how to perform a database
update using FME. There is some info on fmepedia, but I'm not seeing
where I can add a SQL statement to the writer. 

        http://www.fmepedia.com/index.php/Update_Database_Workspace
<http://www.fmepedia.com/index.php/Update_Database_Workspace>  

        What I am trying to do is join an MSSQL table to a shapefile's
dbf, then filter on one of the dbf's attributes, then set one of the SQL
fields to a value, then update the original table. So, right now I have

        SQL Reader > Joiner > Attribute Filter > Attribute Setter > SQL
Writer 

        Everything seems to work fine except for the writing part. 

        Thanks,
