If there aren't a million tables, you could put in a simple SELECT trigger,
so you know what's being used....

Importance: High

To all,
I have cross posted this just in case anyone else knows of anything, I don't
know if this sort of software will be available...I have a SQL Database with
a VB6 front-end that the company has decided it's time we totally re-design,
now this database has been passed down twice so there are tables in it etc
that are no longer used.  Is there a piece of software that can run through
a SQL database and/or VB6 code that will tell me which
tables/queries/views/store procedures are no longer used.  If not does
anyone have a good strategy plan if they have done this before, this is a
big database and I can't see a simple solution to totally re-designing it to
also incorporate the existing data.
Thanks in advance for any help on this .
