It is. The ODBC docu writes for this attribute:


        Locking. The cursor uses the lowest level of locking necessary to make
        sure it can update or delete rows in the result set. This usually results in
        very low concurrency levels, especially at the Repeatable Read and
        Serializable transaction isolation levels. 

and
        SQL_CONCUR_LOCK = Cursor uses the lowest level of locking
        sufficient to ensure that the row can be updated.


So, if you do a "select count(*) from ..." you request a updatable result set.

What did happen, if you try to update the result set (e.g. via SQLSetPos) of
the SQL statement above?

No, there can be updatable.
