I have seen the prototype Red Gate dependency viewer http://www.sqlservercentral.com/columnists/sjones/fixingsysdepends.asp but was wondering does anyone have any alternatives?

If you "can" create all of your database objects in dependancy order, you will not have any issues with sysdepends.
I personally have no sysdepends issues and take any to be a failing of the data modeler for creating circular dependancies or deployment scripts for not following the dependency trail.

Have never seen an alternative and Andy and I have been talking to Red Gate for 3 years to release this.
As far as sysdepends issues. If someone drops/recreates an object, you can sometimes get into this problem. Especially if you are working on a large deployment script.

The problem is not my creating objects out of sync the problem is that I have inherrited a plethora of ancient databases with convoluted dependencies and need to be able to track through them.
