That wisdom:

https://odbc.postgresql.org/faq.html#6.4

also says

" PostgreSQL 7.2 and above can cause similar problems but for different 
reasons:

Contributed by Sam Hokin (sam@ims.net)

The new PostgreSQL timestamp data type defaults to microsecond 
precision. This means that timestamp values are stored like 2002-05-22 
09:00:00.123456-05. However, Access does not support the extra 
precision, so the value that Access uses is 2002-05-22 09:00:00-05. When 
one tries to update a record, one gets the error message above because 
the value that Access uses in its UPDATE query does not match the value 
in the PostgreSQL table, similar to the NULL vs. empty string conflict 
that is already reported in this FAQ entry. "

The above is the problem I usually ran into with Access and Postgres and 
updating.

Is there a timestamp field in the record you are updating?
