The browse capability allows data sets to be opened and viewed in a read only edit session. While using the browse session, the editor offers the same functionality and editor display views as a regular edit session, however modifications are not allowed. The lack of editing capability offers other advantages such as requiring less resources to open and browse a data set. Browsing also prevents any possibility of accidental data modification.
To start a browse session, right-click on any data set within the Remote Systems View and select Browse... from the pop-up menu.
