By Program
Because ASW pre-opens files, you cannot use ‘Work With Job / Display Open Files’ to see which files a program uses. But you can use the cross reference. Look in the upper right hand corner of the screen to get the name of the program.

In this case, RFHD0271 is the name of the screen; not the program. The program is RFHR027. Key it in the program field – ‘Pgm’.

This shows which programs use the file, and how they are used.
I – input O – output, or add U – update
Note that these are program that use this particular logical file (B in the third position). To see all programs that use the file, you will have to repeat this for the physical file, and all other logicals.
To find the names of all the logical files, key in DSPDBR RFOCTLRS and press enter. By changing the third letter to O, we have the name of the physical file.
