It is a version counter maintained internally by FM.
It is 0 (zero) when the record is created, and increments by 1 (one)  
everytime any edit to the record is stored by FM, no matter where the  
edit came from (FM client, WPE, whatever else).

Image 2 users accessing the same record at the same time. Both get  
the same version of the record, one is quick and stores his edits  
back to FM. Then the other user submits his edits...
What should happen with the changes made by the first user?
When this is a big deal, you can use the record version number to  
check that an edit being submitted is in fact based on the current  
record in FM, ie. not overwriting another edit performed by someone  
else 'behind you back'...!
