Hello,
I have developed a utility which we have used for years in house that works great. You specify the libraries you want to use
and it builds a cross reference file. Then on command you specify a file name and are given a display with all accesses to that file (PF,LF,PRTF or DSPF) by program and an option to print the list. You can have it for free if you are interested.
Just let me know where to send it.

Hi,

You could try using ANZPGM, this will let you analyze multiple libraries.

Hello,

You could use FNDSTRPDM to find where an object is being used.

You could also use DSPPGMREF and output the results to an outfile and then search the outfile. This does not require you to have the source for all of your programs.
