ATELearner,

 

You can try the Find/Replace tool to find everywhere a file global has been used in that file.  Go to Edit»Find/Replace to use this tool.  Also, note that this tool does not search your code modules, so if you are calling these variables via the TestStand API in your code modules, you will need to do a search through those code modules as well.
