When I need to do something like this, I use WIN9x/NT
Start..Find...Files or Folders

Specify:
Containing Text: SYS(2015)

Named: *.SC?;*.VC?;*.PRG

or just specify the folder. Since most VisFox code is stored in ascii text
memo fields, this procedure works well in finding anywhere a particular line was used.

HTH,Ed

>Is there a way to find ALL usages of a particular FoxPro command? In this case, I need to find EVERY usage of SYS(2015) and/or the ALIAS argument in a USE statement.

More specifically, substringing the value that SYS(2015) returns and trying to use the result as a valid file name. Only, the substrung result does NOT begin with an underscore or alpha and so is not a valid file name and so CRASHES AND BURNS gracelessly!!!
