Yep - from the help for TIB_RefreshAction:

The Refresh method keeps the whole row buffers in memory and refreshes the
list of keys that define the dataset. If a new row is added, it becomes a
member of the dataset through its key being fetched on refresh; or, if a
row is deleted, its key is excluded when the keys are refreshed. The
deleted row's whole record buffer would eventually be garbage-collected as
a result of its key being absent from the dataset.
...
The RefreshAction property determines how the refresh is to end up. It can
behave as though it were being opened the first time (raOpen) or, after it
is opened again it can go to the row number that it was on before the
refresh (raKeepRowNum). The third option is for it to go to the same row it
was positioned on before, by matching the Bookmark (raKeepDataPos).

BTW, don't call RefreshAll for a single insert. Refresh is sufficient.
