Determine parts references?

Hello;

       I ran into a part where it's description is in-correct. I'm using it in an assy., and want it to reflect the

correct description. I'm wondering though if I change the parts name through the properties, if it will affect

any other referenced parts. I assume, it's separate, but was wondering how i could check to see what it's

referenced to. It was created from another part at one point, that's why i believe it has the old description

still in it. I just want to make sure I'm not messing with any past links, & would like to know how

to see what parts are referenced to.

Thanks, in advance;
