Good catch!  I missed that one.  OK, so modify the approach
in one of the following two ways:

1) - Place the DSPOBJD in an external program, and have it
adopt enough authority to display all the occurrences of
file "TestFile"
                                OR
2) - Give all of the users *OPJOPR to all of the files, but
not any Data Rights.  The Object Operations rights will
allow them to list the properties of the file, but the
CHKOBJ will still fail if you specify AUT(*USE) or
AUT(*CHANGE).

For ease of use and long term management, I would personally
probably go with #1.


Still, a good catch Rob.
