Tim,

I am interpreting that the "browse" you are referring to is 
the "B - Browse" from "Enter Selection > _" not a lookup.  If
this is the case, you CANNOT display dummy variables here.

However, John posted a nice processing table to browse a file, which
if used within a "point of reference or stand" file, it could
be used to inquire your "address" file and successfully display
header information.  This is the way I usually tackle problems such
as this.

Good luck!
