I already found those. Since I am exporting, not importing, I don't see the relevance for my problem.

On my machine I can only reproduce the behaviour by opening the query in two parallel Access sessions. I supposed a query result is just a number of values that can be easily exported without having to update anything whatsoever. Appararently I'm wrong.
