The SET FORMSTATE command is used to control the setting of Query | Update mode upon exit from a menu.  When a menu is accessed from a work surface such as EDIT, the form is placed into Query Mode.  If FORMSTATE is set ON, the mode of the form will be saved when the menu bar is accessed and then restored when the menu is exited.  If FORMSTATE is OFF, then the form will always be placed into Query Mode upon exit from the menu.  By default, FORMSTATE is turned ON in the main config.db file.
