Ok, I am not getting the problem across.. I have added an ad to GoogleBase via the C# API with no problem.
I have also updated via the API with no problems, the location, price fields are accessible and update easily v ia the update call, which passes back the entire entry. The problem is the "description" field which was created via the AddTestAttribute method during the initial ad creation. A second problem being the "area" field created with AddNumberUnit There does not seem to be any way to update these fields as I cannot find any way to access them to change their values when the entry is reloaded via the API and then send back to perform the update. If someone knows a way to do this please respond. Right now, I am deleting the old ad and adding a new one which causes the old ad to disappear and a delay before the new ad appears. This is reality, not theory.. It appears that these added attributes are not changeable hence requiring the delete old and add new.
