The MPS Procedure Browser window is a hosted Microsoft Internet Explorer window that displays the XML content of the current step selected in the MPS Procedure Browser. Besides the general functionality that the Internet Explorer window provides, the window also allows the user to place the contents of the entire XML data file currently displayed in the window onto the clipboard.

The Find MPS Procedures tool window will allow the user to enter in an MPS namespace name and the name of a procedure contained within that namespace and will then return a list of all of the places wherein that procedure is called (for currently registered named procedures).

This tool window will implement the following features:

• Double-clicking any given node will "re-root" the MPS Procedure Browser and the MPS Namespace Explorer. The namespace/procedure represented by the node you double-click node will be selected (become the active procedure) which will trigger a "refresh" of the MPS Procedure Browser, which will cause it to become the top of the tree.
• Right-clicking a procedure should present the user with the option of "Executing" that procedure. This feature is only available for named procedures that have an associated Extensible Schema Definition (XSD) schema registered in the database. The code will interrogate the XSD and generate a basic "form" which will pop up. The user will fill out the required parameters and click "submit". Details on the result of the submission will be available via a standard output window in the integrated development environment (IDE).
• Right-clicking a procedure should present the user with the option of inserting a call to that procedure into the active document at the current location of the cursor. This will cause an <execute /> node with the appropriate references to be inserted at the location of the current cursor
• Ability to select a procedure in the tree and use the drag-and-drop feature to place it in the current code window. Doing so will cause an <execute /> node with the appropriate references to be inserted at the dropped location.
• Right-clicking a procedure should present the user with the option of creating a request to call the procedure. Selecting this option will cause a new XML file to be created in the IDE window which will then be populated with calls an XML structure for the required parameters based on the supplied schema. This feature will only be available for named procedures that have an associated XSD schema registered in the database.
