Where Used/Contains Search Independent of Version

Is there a way to do a where used or contains search that isindependent of the file version? Right now, if I do a where usedsearch on a part file, I have to go through each version to findwhat assembly uses that part. This gets even more complicated whenyou add configurations to the mix.

I think there should be an option to update the assembly referenceswhen a part is revised without changing the version or revision ofthe assembly.

How are others dealing with this?
