The SHOW USES command displays the owners of the element you specify. The display includes the properties of owners and the values associated with these properties. The SHOW USES command lists owners if they have either directory names or processing names. CDO looks first for the directory name and displays it if one exists. If a directory name does not exist, CDO then looks for and displays the processing name. An element can only exist in the repository without a directory or processing name if it has a relationship to an owner with a directory name. CDO displays a name unspecified message in this case. You can use the SHOW USES command to display the names of elements that receive new version messages if you create a new version of the element you specify.
