Q) Now My question is How to update all the values.With an update statement. Identify the row with a where condition and then set the new values. That's one of the first reasons why primary keys are used.
1) If the parameter handles, which type i need to create ?
2) How i need to update multiple records at a time? If you don't explain how you User Interface is designed to work nobody can tell you anything about it. Anyway for such things there is no need to define any type.
Usually the application should submit an update command(like the following one) for each row to update.
update <table_name>
     set field_1= <value1>,
          field_2= <value2>
          field_n= <valuen>
where <primary key column> = <primary key value of the row to update>Bye Alessandro
