Who's touching the file records?

I'm interested in learning about file records. Specifically, who used, changed, or deleted them. What is necessary to do this on an iSeries 9406-620 with OS/400 V4R5?

You can audit all uses of the file through the CHGOBJAUD command (make sure you have *OBJAUD specified in the QAUDCTL system value) and to get the actual changes or deletions, you'll have to journal the file.
