We use software from Talsoft to document our interlocks. Nice feature of
this program is that it also allows us to look up c:b:p references/links
in sequences (both in code, defines and includes), in all blocks and in
displays. Usually when I want to delete a block I first download the
data from DCS, then let the program check for references from /to this
block and I get a very reliable listing of all blocks related to the
block I want to delete. Makes life so much easier. It's a pitty Foxboro
doesn't have nice tools like that.

Tom V's comment about deleting blocks pinged a nerve here. I've always=20
been most uncomfortable about deleting blocks because I cant be sure
I've=20
removed all of the threads.
To check IND sequence code I go to /opt/fox/ciocfg and grep BLOCKNAME=20
*/*.s which sniffs out the code references, then I use a fresh FoxCAE=20
image to look at the block to be deleted, this shows me any continuous=20
connections (I might miss some if I havent refreshed all my CP images,
but=20
we generally keep control connections within one CP, ish).

The irksome bit that remains is the Graphics, DM or Foxview, does
anybody=20
have an easy surefire way to scan graphic files for block references ?
