Updating Financial Periods

Question

Hello to all,
i am developing the addon, and i have to update the financial period from my code. i have a  problem in getting the particular finance period from table OFPR and OACP.
i have the following code, it will update the last record of OACP and OFPR Table, but my problem is that, whatever the user wants to update, he should be able to do so.
                                        SAPbobsCOM.PeriodCategoryParamsCollection oPeriodCategoryColl = null;
                                        SAPbobsCOM.PeriodCategoryParams oPerCategory = null;
                                        SAPbobsCOM.FinancePeriod oFinancePeriod = null;
                                        SAPbobsCOM.FinancePeriods oFinancePeriods = null;
                                        oPeriodCategoryColl = oCompanyService.GetPeriods();
                                                                                int Count = oPeriodCategoryColl.Count;
                                            for (int i = 0; i < Count; i++)
                                               if (i == Count - 1)  //this is for updating the last financial period (only for test:)
                                                    //oPerCategory = oPeriodCategoryColl.Item(i);
                                                    oPerCategory = oPeriodCategoryColl.Item(i);  //this will filter out the unique period(for Eg: 2012 (Code)) in OACP(need to find out how?)
                                                    oPeriodCategory = oCompanyService.GetPeriod(oPerCategory);
                                                    //This is for updating the OACP Table
                                                    oPeriodCategory.FinancialYear = Convert.ToInt16(FsclYr);
                                                    oPeriodCategory.BeginningofFinancialYear = Convert.ToDateTime(StartOfFsclYr);
                                                    oCompanyService.UpdatePeriod(oPeriodCategory);
                                                    //This is for updating the OFPR i.e Financial Period
                                                    oFinancePeriods = oCompanyService.GetFinancePeriods(oPerCategory);
                                                    int financeCount = oFinancePeriods.Count;
                                                    for (int j = 0; j < financeCount; j++)
                                                        if (j == oFinancePeriods.Count - 1)  //this is for updating the last financial period (only for test:)
                                                            oFinancePeriod = oFinancePeriods.Item(j);//this will filter out the unique finance period(for Eg: 2012-10(Code)) in OFPR (need to find out how?)
                                                                                oFinancePeriod.PeriodCode = PeriodCode;
                                                            oFinancePeriod.PeriodName = PeriodName;
                                                            oFinancePeriod.PeriodIndicator = PeriodIndicator;
                                                            oCompanyService.UpdateFinancePeriod(oFinancePeriod);

Based on the help the
>Public Sub UpdatePeriod( ByVal pIPeriodCategory As PeriodCategory )
updates a period category not the period !
I really do not know a method for updateing periods.

Ps:
You code to locate the period named  "2010-12" .  You can also apply AbsoluteEntry instead of PeriodName  to locate the Period by Abs Entry.
for (int j = 0; j < financeCount; j++)
    oFinancePeriod = oFinancePeriods.Item(j)
    if (oFinancePeriods.PeriodName = "2010-12") 
        oFinancePeriod.PeriodCode = PeriodCode;
        oFinancePeriod.PeriodName = PeriodName;
        oFinancePeriod.PeriodIndicator = PeriodIndicator;
        oCompanyService.UpdateFinancePeriod(oFinancePeriod);
