========
If you use the SET COMPATIBLE ON command, the BROWSE LAST (or BROWSE NOINIT)
command does not show the previous settings of the Browse window.
RESOLUTION

Use the SET COMPATIBLE OFF command if the BROWSE LAST command behavior is more
important than the other features affected by the SET COMPATIBLE command. The
SET COMPATIBLE command is also controlled by Tools:Options:General:dBase
compatibility.
