My application has no code relating to this section of the application.
There is basically a TIB_Grid to browse/edit data in a spreadsheet style
(type of data requires this presentation).

I am only using the TIB_UpdateBar component. Basically if a user scrolls
beyond the last row I assume the grid is going into Insert mode
automatically.

How can I tell if something has been entered and therefore ask the user if
they want to post the record. If no data has been entered then I can just
cancel the operation.

I just realised I used the wrong term again. Nothing has been posted hence
there is nothing to rollback.

Not sure, we would have to know more about your application. I would think
you would either need to know to Post or Cancel before you were concerned
about doing a Commit or Rollback.
