Crossing borders with use cases is ok in principle. In your example the Update Database should have an <<extends>> from Edit Data (needs to point from the second to the first!).

Note that you should avoid the use of those extension. If your use case diagrams resemble a spider's web your design is broken. Remember that it's called use case synthesis - not analysis. The first will try to gather things under a hat while the 2nd is used in coding to break down complexity.
