You can also do this without any external tools. MS Access has an option to show all references. You can do this by reight-clicking a table and choose the corresponding menu option.

However, some people have bad experiences with this option so the best thing to do might be to make a copy of the database and turn on the option there. (or just turn it off after you have the results you need).
