[AccessD] Updatable UNION?

IIRC, UNION ALL doesn't make the query updateable, it just returns all
records from the unioned tables, without eliminating duplicate records.

There is some odd trick in the back of my mind that I just can't quite
remember...

Is there some trick about adding ALL to a UNION that makes it updateable? I
know, I'm probably crackers -- and I'm probably confusing this with
something else.

All of my books are in storage and I can't even try to look it up. :(

Andy,

This might sound like dancing around this issue...but could you have user
click on the record to be updated...open a second query/form for just that
record...save the record...and the give a message, "Your update has been
saved and will be reflected next time you refresh the screen".
