Update Access database

Can anyone spare a good example of how to update a specific field in a
row within a table in an access database?
I am good with fetching the data and representing in a table, but what
if I want to update a specific field?
Help!

Do you mean something along the lines of running the following query in
exactly the same manner as your selection ones...

update <tablename> set <column> = newvalue where <identifier> = <value>

?

If so, I'm not too sure why basic sql queries are being asked in a php
newsgroup.
