Push or Click???

[tina]

I would go with  - Click *Browse *if the button was labelled with the word
Browse. Or Click *browse* if it was only an icon button that the user had to
click and then either include the icon in brackets after or as a pop-up on
hover. And I always include in an indented line below a procedure what is
the expected results, e.g. The default Web browser will open.

I don't think you have to specify it is a button as hopefully it is obvious
to the user.
