Access Client Solution SQL enhancement

In the old Access Client for Windows SQL you could code:

select * from library.table for update

after running the query, you could update a field in a record.

The "for update" is what is missing in ACS.

Access Client Solutions dropped that ability. It was very useful.

I was told to request this ability to be added to ACS.

Thanks


Use Case:

Used to make simple data changes to a DB2 table.
