Browse problem

[Bruce Easton]

Since you say the browse box is appearing, but no records appear, I
would check that dummy "AC" is not already being used for another
purpose, thereby overriding part of your browse definition.

Also, does the clerk call for this indicate a qualifier?  And if so, are
you sure you're looking at the right data set for the file
