In SQL Server, how can I find everywhere a column is referenced? [duplicate]

Answer 1

Best ways to do it are described in this article.

A sample:

SELECT OBJECT_NAME (referencing_id),
              referenced_database_name, 
       referenced_schema_name, referenced_entity_name
FROM sys.sql_expression_dependencies d
WHERE OBJECT_NAME(d.referenced_id) = 'TableName'
      AND OBJECT_DEFINITION (referencing_id)  LIKE '%ColumnName%'
ORDER BY OBJECT_NAME(referencing_id);
