browse lookups are not supported in the *report binaries, period.

you can either:
a) have a *clerk wrapper around this report and pass the selection
criteria to *report by lots of ways, and do the browse lookup in
the clerk.
b) have a simple getnext/get prev lookup with display to screen.
c) emulate browse lookup using listbox.
