RE: Really basic question - File Description

You might try 

DSPPGMREF PGM(MYLIB/*ALL)         
          OUTPUT(*OUTFILE)        
          OUTFILE(MYLIB/MYOUTFILE)

This would build a list of program object references in an outfile.  The file 
name and usage could be queried to find all programs that access a file in a 
certain way....

Subject: Really basic question - File Description


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
