Indeed, you have to do some checking manually. Your program should look something like this:

if TableUpdate()
  MessageBox('Record saved successfully.')
else
  * Get error with aerror()
  If (update conflict)
    MessageBox("Update conflict - another user just edited the record.")
    TableRevert()
    ThisForm.Refresh()
endif
