Hi everyone,

This is very basic, but I'd like to ask how can I update the form data by using Patch and Lookup. Here's my code for inserting the data with a Patch function. I'm an absolute beginner please bear with me. Thank you.

Patch(
 Table_SiteTimesheet,
 Defaults(Table_SiteTimesheet),
 {
 Work_Date: Value(Date_WorkDate_1.SelectedDate),
 Name_Project: DD_NameProject_1.Selected.Name_Project,
 Code_Project: DD_NameProject_1.Selected.Code_Project,
 Note: Text_Note_1.Text,
 Start: DD_StartTime_1.Selected.Value,
 End: DD_EndTime_1.Selected.Value,
 User_Name: User().Email, 
 ModifiedOn_Date: Today()
 }
);

I think I understand what you asking.

First assign the ID you want to update to a varible (e.g. Set(varname, the id you updating)

Then you could do something like this:

Patch(
Table_SiteTimesheet,
First(Filter(Table_SiteTimesheet,ID_Timesheet=varname)),
{
Work_Date: Value(Date_WorkDate_1.SelectedDate),
Name_Project: DD_NameProject_1.Selected.Name_Project,
Code_Project: DD_NameProject_1.Selected.Code_Project,
Note: Text_Note_1.Text,
Start: DD_StartTime_1.Selected.Value,
End: DD_EndTime_1.Selected.Value,
User_Name: User().Email,
ModifiedOn_Date: Today()
});

Let me know if you dont understand or it doesnt work.
