UPDATE ATABLE SET AFIELD = AFIELD

This does not change the value of the field but it counts as an update
so the record is locked until the transaction commits. By locking the
master record before you insert a detail record you make sure that no
other user can insert a detail record while you are inserting one
because no other user will be able to lock the master record.

Obviously you have to deal with the case where the UPDATE to the master
record fails because some other user has the record locked.
