3  –  Description

    The SHOW UNUSED command determines whether an element has owners
    or members. The element must have a directory name.

    If the element does not have owners or members, the name and
    type of the element is displayed. If the element has owners
    or members, CDO sends an informational notice. If you receive
    an informational notice, issue the SHOW USES and SHOW USED_BY
    commands to identify these owners or members.

4  –  Examples

    1.CDO>  SHOW UNUSED EMPLOYEE_DB

      In this example, because no qualifier is specified, the
      SHOW UNUSED command displays default BRIEF information. This
      information includes the names of immediate owners or members
      of the EMPLOYEE_DB database element.

    2.CDO>  SHOW UNUSED /FULL FIELD_A(2)

      In this example, the SHOW UNUSED command with the /FULL
      qualifier displays all owners or members of the FIELD_A(2)
      field element.

    3.CDO>  SHOW UNUSED /FULL /TYPE=(FIELD) EMPLOYEE_REC

      In this example, the SHOW UNUSED command with the /FULL and
      /TYPE qualifiers displays all owners or members of EMPLOYEE_REC
      that are fields.
