- After the first record is added to the table, the results from GETFLDSTATE after the END TRANSACTION command return all 1s, which indicates that the field has not been edited.
- After the second record is added to the table, the results for the GETFLDSTATE after the END TRANSACTION command return all 3s, which indicates that the field in the appended record has not been edited.
- The GETFLDSTATE function reports that another record has been appended to the table even though no record has been added.
