Yes, the configuration file does have the DirectUpdate set to true. The problem is how do you syntactically update datastation variables from within .NET?

There's flag called DirectUpdate that should be set to true. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, January 17, 2010 4:00 PM To: Talk Subject: [talkbws] .NET and datastation Hello All! I am building a script in .NET (c#) referencing BostonWorkstion to easily read through an excel spreadsheet and script some data entry through a Java connection. My problem is this... I have not found a way to update Datastations variables. In VBA we would use b.D("status"). But that does not appear to be valid in .NET. I can reference the value of a datastation variable by using b.Value("status") but that is not updatable. Am I doing something squirrley or is there a different way to update the datastation variables in .NET? I am guessing flags wouldn't be updateable either since they have same syntax (b.F("status")), but I haven't tried them. Below is what I attempting to do ... thanks in advance for any suggestions!
