I have dynamic block that has an unused dimstyle (CCP-Dim Style) but when I purge the drawing it says the style is in use. Can someone find it for me so I can get it deleted?
Steps I have taken:
Opened the drawing without opening the block editor and purged it.
Opened the drawing with the block editor and done a QSelect search for any dimensions and the only ones are parametric and dynamic dims.
WBlocked it to a new file.

If I CTRL+A a bunch of hidden dimensions appear.
BTW you have Constraints in use in your file: is that deliberate, or an accident?

It appears that you have a nested block within the dynamic block (Casting DYN.dwg) called StructSteps-tops.dwg,which has a purgable dimstyle CCP-Dim Style contained within it. If you PURGE that item out of the StructStep-tops block it'll should be gone.

Yes, it is a dynamic block and that is how it is constrained to act the way it does. The dimensions you see are the constraint and dynamic dims and they don't use dimstyles.

Thanks! I had purged the steps block and could have sworn I redefined the cleaned up block but when I wblocked it out of the castings file it still had the unused dimstyle.

Hey glad that was a relatively simple solution..... those "unused" entities can be a real hunt to try and track down what is apparently using them. Block definitions seem to be a wonderful hiding place for these things. Have a great day!!

I see you figured it out. Seemed to me it was in the constraints. I attached a revised block just in case.
