We are using abstract, which so far is fantastic.....our change control
software is also tied in with abstract and it uses that information to
know which objects to include in a distribution set.......pretty nice.....
I have no idea whatsoever what the cost is, I just know I love it.

Yes. Start journalling everything that goes on with this file. Leave
that on for a year or so to catch special end of year processing that may
only be run once a year.
Or, look at DSPPGMREF and see if that helps. There are "APIs" in
Infocenter that may help you with this process.
Now some things may hide under the horizon. Like
eval SqlStmt='select * from ' + FileName + ' where doodad=1';
exec sql prepare s1 from :SqlStmt;
...
Or you can buy a tool like Hawkeye to do this for you. But the "Under the
horizon" applies to them also.

Searching what programs use a file.
Hello all! I have a file on my system and I would like to know what
programs
use this file. Is there a way to accomplish this with a basic OS/400 tool?
Thanks.
Nick
