You can update multiple records with different values. For example, changing
the prices of a list of products. Use the  loop action and unique identifier
for each row as n discussed here earlier. Then pass a hidden value called
"prod142(or whatever row number you're at)_price_old" and have the file also
display it in an editable text box (check boxes would work as well) calling
that arg "prod142_price_new". During the loop check to see if
"prod142_price_old"="prod_142_price_new". If not the record is updated with
the new price.

I know I have a sample of this file around somewhere if this solution isn't
clear.

Best of luck
