Conditional write of a field to database

tchristfort

I have a table with user details. One of these are a password in md5 hash. When updating a user I need to only encrypt and write the password when a new password has been entered in the form. I can use the field->Set(false) to prevent write to the database, but can this be based on a condition: field value not empty? or should I go a total different way?

Hi @tchristfort ,

This earlier forum post is likely to help. It links to this blog post, which does give a solution similar to what you suggested.
