I did look at below links but I am not able to understand what _browseproperty will hold?. Will it hold the customized path that I set?

Hello Team
I would like to know whether _BrowseProperty is an inbuilt property property by WIX toolset?. If yes, then what value does it hold?
I would also like to know if BrowseDlg is an inbuilt dialog of Wix?. If yes, then how do I access its control. Also the path that I enter in pathedit, does it get automatically saved I am trying to understand the below code but I don't find the controls of BrowseDlg defined in the code.
