It saves the last record you put in. This is a standard approach for databases, minimising loss of data if anything happens to your computer while you are working on it. It is also important for the primary key. If each record was not saved as it was entered, then it could allow you to put in a duplicate primary key. But as each record is saved immediately a database can compare the new primary key field against all the ones that have been entered to date. For these reasons and other reasons, records are saved as soon as they have been entered.
