You mean you try provide open/close trick ?
And you work on OS X ?

Keith although have answer you.

Just again, for Keith and you.
There is more effective way that Keith describe.
Instead of join on 2 tables, better to have dummy table with one record and
one field, and simply try UPDATE SET f1 = 3 WHERE RecID = 1
To force write.

Jason, or you ask about something else ?
