How to Have Two Browse Windows for the Same Database

The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft FoxPro for MS-DOS, versions 2.0, 2.5, and 2.5a
  • Microsoft FoxPro for Windows, versions 2.5 and 2.5a

If a Browse window has been displayed for a particular work area, issuing another BROWSE command with that work area selected will overwrite the current Browse window.

To have two Browse windows open for the same database:

  1. Select another work area.

  2. Open the database with the USE <database> AGAIN command. This command allows the database to be opened simultaneously in two work areas.

  3. Issue another BROWSE command so that you have two separate Browse windows for the same database.
