On second thought, I am now confused. The data is updatable when using
linked tables, just not when using ADO recordsets connected to forms. I
tried connected to PostGreSQL using DAO, and I got the recordset back, but
it was also non-updatable.
For the time being I am using Linked Tables, even though it is much slower
to open the forms using that methodology.
