# updateBytes Method (SQLServerResultSet)
[!INCLUDE[Driver_JDBC_Download](../../../includes/driver_jdbc_download.md)]

  Updates the designated column with an array of **byte** values.  
  
## Overload List  
  
|Name|Description|  
|----------|-----------------|  
|[updateBytes (int, byte[])](../../../connect/jdbc/reference/updatebytes-method-int-byte.md)|Updates the designated column with an array of **byte** values given the column index.|  
|[updateBytes (java.lang.String, byte[])](../../../connect/jdbc/reference/updatebytes-method-java-lang-string-byte.md)|Updates the designated column with an array of **byte** values given the column name.|  
  
## Remarks  
 In a previous version of [!INCLUDE[jdbcNoVersion](../../../includes/jdbcnoversion_md.md)], you could use SQLServerResultSet.updateBytes to convert values between byte arrays and [!INCLUDE[ssNoVersion](../../../includes/ssnoversion-md.md)] data type **date**, **time**, **datetime2**, or **datetimeoffset**. Now, using this method with those data types will cause an exception indicating that the conversion is not supported.
