The DB Browse binding is technically equivalent to the SQL Query binding, except that it helps write the queries for you. Using the Database Browse binding type, you can pick the table from a list of tables in each database that you want to pull content from. If you have a fixed range of data you need to return, simply select it in the table, and watch the query get generated.
In the Browse Database tree, you can choose which columns in your table should act as your keys (these columns get put in the WHERE clause based on your selection) and which columns should be used to sort the data (these columns are put in the ORDER BY clause).
This binding type also serves as a convenient jumping-off point for the more flexible SQL Query binding. Construct the basic outline of your query in the DB Browse section, and then select the SQL Query radio button to convert to the new binding type. Your query will be retained and can then be modified manually.
After selecting a table in the Browse Database tree, you can customize which columns the query is selecting by selecting one or more columns under the table to select just the highlighted columns, or selecting the table to use the * symbol to select all columns.
The DB Browse binding has the ability to designate key columns within the query. A key column is used within the select query's where clause, and can be given a value. A column is denoted as a key column when it has a key symbol next to it.
Clicking the Key 
icon to the right of the Browse Database tree will designate a column as a key column. Alternately, if the highlighted column is already a key column, then clicking the Key 
icon will remove that column as a key column.
In the DB Browse binding, you can also sort data in ascending or descending order. Select the column that you want to sort by and click the Sort 
icon. Multiple columns can be used for sorting.
DB Browse bindings also give the ability to bind a property to a key column to allow for dynamic filtering of the returned data. Simply click the binding 
icon next to the key column field. This allows you to give the operators some control over the data they are seeing.

from the id column and place it on the state column.
icon next to the value in the Key Columns section, and select the Text property of the Text Field. 
Similar to the SQL Query Binding, the DB Browse Binding has the ability to become bidirectional by doing a database write back when the property being bound is a non-dataset type. In this case, the select query should be configured to only return a single row from a single column.
For example, this option can provide a single value to the Text property of a Text Field component. If you check the Enable Database Writeback checkbox, then any user input will write back to the database. This will automatically generate an update query that will push the input value into the database from the location where the original value was retrieved.
