### Updating an item from a Azure Storage Table
In case you are new to the Azure Storage Tables, we've reviewed the following items this week:
* [Creating your first Azure Storage Table](https://microsoft.github.io/AzureTipsAndTricks/blog/tip82.html)
* [Adding an item to a Azure Storage Table](https://microsoft.github.io/AzureTipsAndTricks/blog/tip83.html)
* [Reading an item from a Azure Storage Table](https://microsoft.github.io/AzureTipsAndTricks/blog/tip84.html)
* [Today - Updating an item from a Azure Storage Table](https://microsoft.github.io/AzureTipsAndTricks/blog/tip85.html)
Today, we'll be taking a look at updating an item through C# code into an Azure Storage Table.
#### Getting Started
Open the C# Console application that we were working with [yesterday](https://microsoft.github.io/AzureTipsAndTricks/blog/tip84.html) and let's add a method to:
* Update an item based off of the table, RowKey and PartitionKey that we pass in.
#### Update an item
In our `Program.cs` file, we'll now add in a helper method that passes in a table, RowKey and PartitionKey and the new message that we want to use.
***Special thanks to Niko12 for his comment below which caused me to rewrite this method.***
```csharp
static void UpdateMessage(CloudTable table, string partitionKey, string rowKey, string newMessage)
{
Thanks entity = table.GetEntity<Thanks>(partitionKey, rowKey);
entity.Name = newMessage;
table.UpdateEntity(entity, ETag.All, TableUpdateMode.Replace);
}
```
In this example, once it performs the lookup, if it is not null, then we want to update the message with the one that we specify.
#### Putting it all together.
The **Main** method inside of the `Program.cs` file, we'll call our helper method.
```csharp
static void Main(string[] args)
{
var serviceClient = new TableServiceClient(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["StorageConnection"]);
TableClient table = serviceClient.GetTableClient("thankfulfor");
table.CreateIfNotExists();
//added these lines
UpdateMessage(table, "ThanksApp", "I am thankful for the time with my family", "I am thankful for the time with my family and friends");
Console.ReadKey();
}
```
