The browse screen does not constantly update the display of all of the
records shown.  Neither would sitting at the entsel prompt on the same
record cause it to be redrawn just because someone else has updated the
record, until you did something to cause filePro to re-read it.  (Such
as entering update on the record, or scrolling the browse.)
