It's not a problem to do the browse lookup from a different file.  But, the 
scenario you are describing sounds as if you're already in the file you want 
to browse, doing other things, and you were suggesting exiting/starting or 
SYSTEMing to another dclerk to do the browse.  If that's not the case, and 
you're starting a "browse only" dclerk, then it doesn't matter.
