    Hello

    I am a student who is currently working in a co-op part of my schooling. I have inherited a large database that was created and built on by 3 previous students. There has been no professional supervision and the result is, well, interesting! yikes
    One of my problems is that there is a lot of tables, queries and modules that I am pretty sure are no longer being used by the database. The database is so large and my experience is so limited that I am afraid to remove objects with out being sure of the items obsolescence.
    Is there a way that I can keep a count on the number of times an object has been accessed?
    Or, is there another way to insure that an object is no longer in use?

    Thank you!

      If you can get your supervisor to fork over the $, get Total Access Analyzer (click on the name to go to a description of it). Among many other things it will give you many different types of cross-references of your database. Also handy if you’re cleaning up “messes” created by others is the fact that it provides a detailed breakdown of problems in your database.

        I have already sent out the request! :]
