Actually, M$ Access does the same thing. When a form (or query)
is populated with the contents of a record, it no longer is
changed within the database - only within the form (or query).
It is only when the record is saved that there is any indication
of change or deletion. The only way to determine if the record
in the form (or query) has been changed or deleted is to check
that record in the database during the operation, which is not
routinely done.
