Question
I have several RPGLE/CLLE objects that I need to organize. How do I determine where the source lives for these objects. DSPPGM/DSPOPBJ does not show the info I need for LE objects and we do not have a HAWKEYE type product.

Answer
The fact that DSPPGM does not give you the name of the source file and library suggests that the source may not be on your system.  One possible way of locating the source if it does exists is by using the DSPFD command to display a list of source members to an outfile, which you could then browse for the member name.  The format of the command is:

DSPFD FILE(*ALL/source_file_name) TYPE(*MBRLIST)OUTPUT(*OUTFILE) FILEATR(*PF) OUTFILE(library_name/filename)
