Hello,
I need to find where an sp is called from another sp or how many sp's a main
sp is calling. Here is something that I tried with no luck. I know that
this sp is calling other sp's or is being called by other sp's. How can I
get a list of sp's related to this'
--this does not return anything for me even though I know there are
dependencies
select DISTINCT OBJECT_NAME([id]) Proce FROM sysdepends WHERE
OBJECT_NAME([depid]) in (select specific_name from
information_schema.routines where routine_type = 'sp_Compare_Add')
order by Proce
Thanks,
Rich1. See what the undocumented procedure master..sp_MSdependencies tells
you. However, this may sometimes miss references.
2. You can query the syscomments table like so:
select object_name(id) as obj_name from syscomments where text like
'%usp_mysp%'
3. Run a SQL Profiler event trace.

dependencies:
select object_name([id]) as [Procedure],
object_name([depid]) as [Depends on Procedure]
from dbo.[sysdepends]
where objectproperty([id], 'IsProcedure') = 1
and objectproperty([depid], 'IsProcedure') = 1
and objectproperty([id], 'IsMSShipped') = 0
Order by [id], [depid]
Note that there is the possibility due to late binding data could be missing
here

This comment did the trick. I located what I needed.
