    Thanks for the reply Brendan & Sean. I will use syscomments for sure. Just that we are planning to get rid of/move one of the databases and need to find out what all is accessing it locally or remotely.

    I would recommend that once you have identified what you think is everything that is referencing this db and you are ready to remove it, instead just take it offline. You will quickly find any of the other applications that you missed. 😉
