Is there a way to make changes to a table being used by an open form?

I am trying to update a table (via a make table query) that is being used as the record source on an open form. Is it possible to update / change the data in a table that is currently being accessed by a form?

Thanks
 
Hi Bk,

Yes, as long as that particular record has not been edited without being stored by the form at that point.

However, you state that you want to use a maketable query? You are not then simply making changes to data, but to the whole table (which I would think would not be possible).
