No, because again, that's dependent on the backend. All that the
WHERE type buys you in VFP is the ability to detect such conflicts
ahead of time. If there is a conflict with a field that you are
updating and you select WHERE type of 1, Fox will merrily overwrite
the changed values. Some backends don't allow you to do that, due to
various locking schemes that deal with timestamps and such. Rather
than try to handle every possible conflict scenario for every
possible backend, I left it up to the developer to handle.
