No in my general knowledge of EF there is nothing like VFP style table buffering.
This is all done without any binding to the actual data table like VFP. Instead this is making a large set of update statements that are all parameter based passing it down in a single statement. Oh yeah you don't have to do any of that code, just change what is needed and it will do all the other work for you.
