It would be nice to be able to quickly search for object in PB Browser window simply by typing it . 

Even better if Browser Window would display the source library. 

Even better if user could check in  and check out object directly from Browser window. 

Let's say I need to make some change in a datawindow.

We have hundreds of datawindows spread out in about 30 libraries. I have to scroll in Browser a long list in order to find one. Then I open it just to see the source library. Then close it, navigate to library, check out and open it again for editing. 

 

datawindow procedure return value
Can I ask a PFC question?

Agreed, although why bother with the browser, just add a find box in the system tree. Type in and it expands the libraries and filters the objects that match. All the remaining functionality works as normal.

Thanks for the suggestion.

David
