[Dhirendra Kumar]

Hi Paul spencer,

Thankyou for your replay, and right now i am studying MGOS Feature API. Paul
Spencer you mentioned in your message that you also  build two applications
like my Application. So,  if you don't mind then can you send me some PHP
Code sample for updating Attribute of SHP file Because to see code i can
understand better and Applay in my project fastly. I'll try to follow your
given Psuedo code. Thankyou

Regards 

Dhirendra Kumar
