HI I am looking for a tool or code. I have to lookup often
where a file is in use in a program. I run Find string using option 25 on
say
QRPGLESRC and it prints a list.

I would like to have a program that will take a parameter of a file
name,read all the libraries in our system, do this '25' on them. Do I read
a file in QSYS to get this?

then I would need the command to do the option 25.

Thanks this would save me alot of time.

Here is one suggestion.
1) CLP FNDSTRSYS which will find all libraries: DSPOBJD qsys/*all *lib
output(*outfile) outfile(qtemp/libs)
2) CLP LIBS that will DCLF, RCVF and filter (you don't really want to
look in IBM libraries, do you?) and once you have a library you want to
process, call CLP SRCFS
3) CLP SRCFS which will DSPOBJD &lib/*all *file output(*outfile)
outfile(qtemp/files). DCLF, RCVF and process the files one by one. If
it turns out that you really only need files named Q*, then use Q* in
your DSPOBJD to save time. Once you have a file you want to process,
use FNDSTRPDM to search it.

Personally, I use RDi and the iSphere plug-in.
