I’m trying to run a update query on an property change event script of the ignition table.  
My script currently looks like:

data = event.source.data  
if event.propertyName == “Selected Row”:  
oldData = event.oldValue  
idNumber = data.getValueAt(int(oldData), ‘motorID’)  
#Get values from table for Database Update  
…Querys

I would like it to run these querys when the selected row changes instead of each individual cell gets updated which I realize would be easier.  
Any ideas what I’m missing here?

Yes, every property has a display name and a scripting name. In your case the table’s selected row property has a display name of “Selected Row” but a scripting name of “selectedRow”. So your code should look like this:`data = event.source.data
if event.propertyName == "selectedRow":
    oldData = event.oldValue
    idNumber = data.getValueAt(int(oldData), 'motorID')
    #Get values from table for Database Update
    ....Querys`
