Description

MODIFY SELECTION does almost the same thing as DISPLAY SELECTION. Refer to the description of DISPLAY SELECTION for details. The differences between the two commands are:

1. DISPLAY SELECTION enables you to display the current selected records in list mode, or in the input form when you double-click on a record. Using MODIFY SELECTION, you can modify a record when you double-click on it, if it is not already in use by another process or user, or in "Enter in List" mode (if it is authorized).

2. DISPLAY SELECTION automatically switches the table to read-only. MODIFY SELECTION automatically switches the table to read-write. Both commands restore the table state after they have completed execution.
