CAUSE:

Bug# OE00195099

FIX:

None at this time. As a work around


1. Create a local 'src' directory in the working directory.
2. In the 'src' directory create a directory 'adm2'.
3. Make a local copy of browser.p and copy it into 'src\adm2'.
4. Add a propath entry to the beginning of the propath for <working directory>\src.
5. In the EnableFields procedure of the local copy of browser.p, there is the code:

/* avoid error 4517 setting read-only when browse has focus */
if focus = hBrowse then
hBrowse:sensitive = no.
hBrowse:READ-ONLY = NO.

Replace this code with:

/* avoid error 4517 setting read-only when browse has focus */
if focus = hBrowse then
APPLY "ENTRY":U TO hFrame. /*hBrowse:sensitive = no.*/
hBrowse:READ-ONLY = no.

6. Save and recompile browser.p.
7. Restart the session.

This should make the browse behave as expected without error.
