As long as you are aware that those Borland IBX components don't have any
"buffer smarts" for refreshing individual row updates, even though you may
have your transactions in ReadCommitted isolation and the transaction
itself actually "knows" that another user changed them. After committing,
you will have to close the query and open it again, to see the results of
both your own and another transaction's updates.

IOW, the database does the job properly but the components are a bit lame.
