-**fScan Reference Manual, Chapter 2 (CmdLineOptions): browse** 
-===== Browse -- Select items from a list===== 
-**usage: -browse tablename flag outvarb showcol returncol title msg nx ny** 
  
-The BROWSE command creates an interactive window and displays the contents of the TABLENAME data list. 
-TABLENAME is a table list structure, usually created via the [[jvs:fscan:manual:chapter2:table|-Table]] or [[jvs:fscan:manual:chapter2:connect|-Connect query]] commands. 
-The user can select one or more (see FLAG) rows in the list. When the window is closed, the desired row(s) are stored in a new table, or in a string variable (see USERVARBS). 
- 
-The FLAG argument can be used to specify browsing options (combine by adding):\\ 
-  * 1 - return single value (OUTVARB is user varb name\\ 
-  * 2 - return new table (OUTVARB is table name)\\ 
-  * 4 - allow multiple entries to be selected\\ 
-  * 8 - inverse: keep only entries NOT selected\\ 
- 
-If SHOWCOL is greater than 0 it indicates which column of TABLENAME to display in the browse list.\\ 
-If RETURNCOL is greater than 0 it indicates which column of TABLENAME to store in OUTVARB.
