USED() (I think, because this is not in HELP file) checks if the file is USED() in current data session. If you are used that file in some other DS and you have EXCLUSIVE use of that file you will get the error. Also if you are used the file somewhere else but with different ALIAS and again this file is EXCLUSIVE use, you also will get the error.
