Inevitably, I discover I'm still in browse and it's a time waster to have to
reopen another window in edit and find that spot again. Is there a way to
change a window in browse to edit directly in one step? Or, what looks like
one step to the user? If not, this would be a worthwhile feature.>

Graham,

I don't have that problem. For example, I can right click a source member in RSE and open it for browse. If I then double click the same source member (or right click and choose Open With LPEX), a new window is not opened. The current edit window simply changes from Browse mode to Edit mode, and I don't even lose my place in the program. Is this different from what you're asking for?
