Operation

For the specified row, the operation will set item attributes that have the same name as the column names of the specified table.

Note:

  • Numerical values will be set regardless of the formatting of the columns (cells) or item attributes.
  • Matching item attribute and column names are NOT case sensitive.

Report Tuple Deails when pressed with load the default text reader and report the item attributes (by class if there are more than one item flow through the routine) that match the column names of the specified table.

Example

An item has the following attributes (only):

i.ID = 1111

i.Colour = Blue

i.Size = Large

A table named Location exists as follows:

ID Name Colour Location
2345 Turner Red Hobart
3523 Lisbon Green Brighton


Applying the Routine Operation TupleRowToItem((t.location.Row(2))

Would set the item attributes to the following values:

i.ID = 3523

i.Colour = Green

Note:

  • i.Size remains unchanged as it doesn't appear as a column in the table.
  • i.Location doesn't exist so it is not set.
