Activating a browser frame in your layout gives you access to the Browser context (right-click) menu. The data is read-only, but you can sort and filter the contents and resize and reorder columns. You cannot edit the data in a browser frame; you can only make cosmetic changes.
You cannot select rows in a browser frame in the Layout window, and selections to the same base table made in other windows does not affect the browser frame.
To edit the display of a browser frame:
- Right-click on the browser frame and from the pop-up menu, select Activate. This highlights the border of the active frame.
- Right-click on a column in the browser frame and from the pop-up menu, select to sort the column or apply a filter to it.

Clicking away from the active frame deactivates it.
