Re: how is data arrived at in this table/column?

Use one of the number of available commercial tools that can do this. e.g. Abstract/Probe, Hawkeye, the X-Analysis tool family and others.

If you use RDi it will build a where used/defined/changed list in the outline view. That's what I use most of the time - but it only works within a program - not across program tools like the tools do.

So being in the legacy world for 20+ years and working with ancient
cobol/rpg code that a single pgm can span 10k+ lines of code, I still have
not found an efficient way to answer clients requests of "how is the data
arrived at in this table/column?" Aside from a whole lot of time, effort
and grunt work.

How do others handle these requests?
