**MyBrowseClass.TakeScroll PROCEDURE(SIGNED Event)   !process a scroll event**

** CODE**

** !handle the scroll**

** SELF.PostNewSelection               !post EVENT:NewSelection to list**

** IF ~SELF.Sort.Locator &= NULL       !if locator is present**

**  SELF.Sort.Locator.Set              ! clear it**

** END**

** IF SELF.Sort.Thumb &= NULL          !if thumb is present**
