I've RTFM but I'd like a bit of clarification please.

In DBISAM with the LockProtocol set to pessimistic if the row had been changed then when we went to edit it we received the good old 8708.

Am I correct in assuming that in EDB, with RecordLockProtocol set to pessimistic, and RecordChangeDetection set to false we will no longer receive the error (now 1007/8)? If I am correct is the record data being displayed refreshed prior to editing or what?

Correct.

Yes, the row data is refreshed when the row is edited, so the changes will
be there.  The only difference is that EDB simply won't say "Hey !  The row
changed from what you were just looking at prior to the edit !".
