Angel,
This is indeed a pretty cool script.
I ran it against a small database of mine, after changing '[msdb]' to '[My database].' Aside from some of the information printed still saying "msdb" because I didn't change that string, the information looked pretty darn accurate.
Thanks for this!
Two caveats though.
1. It so happens that the DB I ran it against makes extensive use of Dynamic SQL because it goes after information in other databases. Those references didn't show themselves.
2. Some of the views weren't showing the tables they were pointing at. Is that by design or some quirk of the dependencies lookup you're doing?
My thought question: Have you ever been told that your query runs too fast?
My advice:
INDEXing a poor-performing query is like putting sugar on cat food. Yeah, it probably tastes better but are you sure you want to eat it?
The path of least resistance can be a slippery slope. Take care that fixing your fixes of fixes doesn't snowball and end up costing you more than fixing the root cause would have in the first place.
