RE: How to find dependencies

Andrew,

Yes, the OverloadCheck package was probably what I remembered reading about.

Thanks for the tip on PL/Scope. Did not know that one.

Were you think of Steven's OverloadCheck package? That checks packages for ambiguous overloading so it doesn't really deal with procedure-level dependencies. But I imagine it gives a good insight into how one might roll one's own. The following link takes you to Part 1 of 8

Alternatively, in 11g there is fine-grained dependency checking with PL/Scope. Tom wrote about it here:
