Constant | Description |
adEditNone | Indicates that no editing operation is in progress. |
adEditInProgress | Indicates that data in the current record has been modified but not yet saved. |

Remarks
ADO maintains an editing buffer associated with the current record. This property indicates whether changes have been made to this buffer, or whether a new record has been created. Use the EditMode property to determine the editing status of the current record. You can test for pending changes if an editing process has been interrupted and determine whether you need to use the Update or CancelUpdate method.
See the AddNew method for a more detailed description of the EditMode property under different editing conditions.
