Hello,
I have an PerosnAudit table, Not sure from where this table data is populating.
And also we have person table,In both these tables columns are same.the extra column I see in personAudit table as Audit ID.
We checked triggers and I see one trigger created under Person table called delPersons on dbo.Person for delete as ..begin bla bla bla......
We queried this one to check are there any stored procedures are using for this PersonAudit table, but I don't see this table in any of the stored procedures.and didn't find in packages too or batch files..
SELECT DISTINCT
SP_Name = O.name,
Table_Name = OO.name
FROM sys.sysdepends D INNER JOIN sys.sysobjects O ON
O.id = D.id
INNER JOIN sys.sysobjects OO ON
OO.id = D.depid
WHERE O.xtype = 'P'
Any idea like anywhere do I need to check it?

SQL Search[/url] is free and really useful when you are looking for references to database objects. Maybe it will help you track this down.

There is a function called object_definition() that accepts object_id and then returns the T-SQL of object like stored procedures, UDF, or views. When combined with sp_msforeachdb, you can leverage it to quickly scan across all objects in all databases.

exec sp_msforeachdb

'

print ''?'';

use ?;

select db_name(), type, name as object_name

, object_definition(object_id) as object_text

from sys.objects as o

where is_ms_shipped = 0

and (object_definition(object_id) like ''%PersonAudit%'')

';

Thank you Eric, But didn't came nay results.

showing object name as delPersons ....I see only this.

Is there any way that they are handling this audit data from some where I mean from application or from scripts?

Yes there is. The application which maintains the Person table could also be maintaining the audit table.
