Browse problem

Again thank to everyone who responded. 

However, no one addressed the main issue I am having.  The browse window comes up but no records appear.  I copied the processing out to another file and everything works as it should.

This is in the file which had issues with the long variables not able to accept a value. I am not sure if this is a memory issue or something else.  I added the busybox option to see if the records are being accessed.

I am going to added an @key function and a GOTO to test the browse.  Again there are only 6 records that should appear. The file has only 10 records total.  

Browse code:

63  -------   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -
       ◄ If:
       Then: AA="(brw=10 xkey=XS show=keep pop=0 fill=asc,top)"
 64  -------   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -
       ◄ If:
       Then: AB="[ Card Type     Card Number    Exp Date    Security Key]"
 65  -------   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -
       ◄ If:
       Then: AC="*1         *3               *2           *4"
 66  -------   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -
       ◄ If:
       Then: lv="a"
68  -------   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -
busy   ◄ If:
       Then: Busybox "Looking for Records"
 69  -------   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -
       ◄ If:         busy
       Then:         MSGBOX "Busybox is running"
 70  -------   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -
lokcard◄ If:
       Then: lookup test = testccnumbersforcardworks k=lv i=A -NG b=(AA&AB&AC)
 71  -------   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -
       ◄ If:         @bk = "S"
       Then:         CCnumber=test(3);display;CLEARB;MSGBOX "The letter S was Pressed"
 72  -------   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -
       ◄ If:         @sk = "BRKY" or @bk= "X" or @bk = "s"
       Then:         CLEARB
73  -------   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -
      ◄ If:         @sk = "BRKY" or @bk = "X" or @bk = "S"
      Then:         Exit
74  -------   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -
      ◄ If:         @bk ne ""
      Then:         MSGBOX "The key Was pressed"<@bk<"at line"<@li


Thisa is the code that does not display any records when run from ther transaction file in a called process.  It does display the records when run form an @keyT option in my test file.  The processing was saved and loaded into the test file input processing. The file is names "TEST".
