I don't think so; that's what I tried first and it did not work.
Mind you, I'm not claiming to understand the behavior.

Here's something I wrote down at the EPICS training at BLN:

'Bob [Dalesio] went into a lot of details about the way data are sent around the network.  One thing that stuck out was a remark about how record data are queued in network packets:

"... waveform records are the exception.  Their values are not queued, but the p
ointers are."

To which I asked: "Is that why my waveform records often do not update properly 
in EDM when they are changed by a subroutine record?"  Answer: Yes.'
