Hi Sergey,

thank you for caring:

The new Browse still does not show the column Class, instead of showing 5 columns as requested, it still only shows 4 columns, leaving out the Class column.

Sorry for not answering sooner, but I am travelling and the connections are somewhat difficult to get during the intermissions. I do not think, I'll be online the next 24 hours.

Hans
