// Updates the value of a table's TERM field to city, if its 1996 population is

// greater than or equal to 10,000.

public void UpdateTerm(ITable table)

{

    // Build the query filter.

    IQueryFilter queryFilter = new QueryFilterClass();

    queryFilter.WhereClause = "Pop1996 >= 10000";

    queryFilter.SubFields = "TERM";

 

    // Find the position of the TERM field in the table.

    int termPosition = table.FindField("TERM");

 

    // Build the row buffer to store the new value(s).

    IRowBuffer rowBuffer = table.CreateRowBuffer();

    rowBuffer.set_Value(termPosition, "City");

 

    // Update the matching rows.
