Displays ownership information for opened drawing files
Command line: whohas
You can use WHOHAS to track which users have certain drawing files open.
WHOHAS displays the Select Drawing to Query dialog box (a Standard File
Selection Dialog Boxes). After you select a file, the ownership information is
displayed on the command line. The information includes the current user's
computer name, login ID, and full name (if available) and the date and time
the drawing file was opened.
NOTE Similar information is displayed automatically when you try to open a
drawing file that another user has open.
The information displayed by WHOHAS is stored in a temporary DWL (drawing
lock) file. A DWL file is automatically created when a file is opened and then
deleted when the file is closed.
