My programmer is on holiday, otherwise I'd ask him...

I would like to see which of our program updates a file on our iSeries. If I use WRKMBRPDM and search all our rpg source I see lots of references to it like this

FNAME IF E K DISK

But in the program I think updates it I see

FNAME O E K DISK

Hopefully, the O tells me something helpful - like this program writes to this file?
What do IF and UF (which I've also seen) mean, and are they any other common definitions?

Thanks

Guy
