Our database(s) are all over the place - no documentation - lot's of
rubbish and unused stuff.
I'm managing a project focusing on data quality that covers code
changes, alterations to DTS packages, schema changes etc etc.

What I'd like to do is see where the bit I want to change is being
used.
that might mean what stored procs use a field and what sprocs use that
sproc.
maybe it's which dts packages use a sproc (and again up the
hieararchy)

The list is a long one but basically I need to know what the effects
are of changes.
Is there a tool out there that lets me navigate a database to that
level of detail - I understand something along the same lines is
available for MS Access but I can't find it for SQL Server.

Thanks

Obviously you could run traces while the db is running-- although this could
cause some resource descrease.
You could also do direct searches in all the sys tables for instances of the
keywords you are using
