| HiTo expand.e.g.I have a scalar function in one containerFooBar1.dbo.GetText(a,b)This looks into the following Tables in order and then jumps out when it has found a match.FooBar1.dbo.Text1FooBar2.dbo.Text2FooBar3.dbo.Text3If you do sp_depends GetTextYou get just table back (and the columns it references), and that table is in the same container [Foobar1] and it does not give the tables in the other containers.So what I would like is a way to get back a list likeFooBar1.dbo.Text1FooBar2.dbo.Text2FooBar3.dbo.Text3-- David |

That comes back with a a number of results sets all the same and without any reference to the containers.  -- David |
