Hi rune, to update data in SDE,
you can also use the ArcSDE 3.0 writer, or the Geodatabase ArcSDE Writer. What you have to do is define the KEY-Field for updating in the properties of your destination featureset. The ArcSDEQuerier works in update mode, but the updates will always be done on the OBJECTID - field, which is not necessariliy what you want. As for the Joiner Transformer, I do not think it can update features. It gets you joined features and adds them to your querying feature, but the update process has do be done by the ArcSDEQuerier or one of the ArcSDE Writers. See this page for more infos: http://www.fmepedia.com/index.php/Which_READER_and_WRITER_should_I_use_for_Geodatabase I do not know if these steps work on Informix, but I can assure you they work on Oracle!

Hi all, I want to update attributes of a feature class (argis 9.2/informix/fme 2007) but I can't get it to work. It seems to me I have 2 options: the joiner transformer or the arcsdequerier. The joiner works fine but can't work with informix, the arcsdequerier doesn't work at all in update mode. How do you update attribute in a given feature class using (non spatial) info like a common key? thanks in advance, rune
