If this were a regular (ie: non-browse) lookup, how would you check for
the success/failure of it?  You would test "not pros".  Just because this
is a browse lookup does not negate that ability.

Yes, you do a partial check on the next line:

This will check for breaking out or pressing 'X', but it doesn't check
for the lookup having failed because there were no records.  Simply add
"or not pros".  (Actually, in that case, the check for BRKY is redundant.)
