The **Selecting **property indicates whether the BrowseClass object selects a browse item or updates browse items. A value of zero (0) sets update mode; a value of one (1) sets select only mode.

The HideSelect property is only effective when the Selecting property indicates update mode.

**Implementation:**

In select mode, a DOUBLE-CLICK or ENTER selects the item; otherwise, a DOUBLE-CLICK or ENTER updates the item.
