If a Browser window is open in MapInfo Pro, then you can add it as a table in your layout. Adding a table is useful when you want to show more details about the data than the map displays.

To display a table in your layout:

On the LAYOUT tab, in the Edit group, use the Browser command to add a browser frame to your layout. This command can be used in the following ways:

Click the Browser command to open the Browse Table dialog where you can select an open table to add to a new browser frame.

Expand the Browser command drop-down list to select from the Browser windows that you have open and any browser frames that you already have in your layout.

New Browser

Opens the Browse Table dialog box where you can select a table that is currently open in MapInfo Pro, to add to your layout.

Browsers

Indicates one or more Browser windows. Select to copy a Browser window into a new browser frame in your layout.

Browser Frames

Indicates one or more browser frames that is already in your layout. Selecting a browser frame duplicates the frame in your layout, so that you can show the same data twice in your output. You can edit each browser frame separately. This is useful if you want to show before and after scenarios, or wish to compare and contrast data on your map.

The table you select is in a browser frame in the Layout window.

Note: Closing open Browser windows does not affect your layout. However, closing a table closes the browser in all windows including the Layout window.
