Features of SQL Dependency Tracker
SQL Dependency Tracker Feature list
- Graphically track and explore your SQL Server 2000, 2005 and 2008 database object dependencies.
- Analyze the impact of changes – Add objects to your diagram, and objects which use them will be added automatically.
- Show source SQL scripts for objects – See the SQL definition of an object for more detail.
- Track cross-database dependencies – See external references and follow them between databases.
- Multiple databases, one diagram – Track dependencies between several related databases in the same diagram and project.
- Customize your diagrams – Move objects around and change their colors.
- Print directly from the diagram or export as PDF
- Search, sort and filter objects – Track down the objects you're interested in.
- Copy diagrams to other programs – Use diagrams in word processing documents, presentations, and other applications.
- Export XML – Export an XML definition of dependencies for offline processing.
- Choice of layouts – Choose from multiple automatic layouts to arrange your diagram neatly and make navigation easy.
- Load/save diagrams as projects – Save all relevant dependency information in a project, so you can explore the diagram offline with no connection to the database.
- Include or hide constraints – See check constraints, indexes and foreign keys either as objects or as dependencies between objects.
- Optional system object and filegroup dependencies – Hide these dependencies to minimise clutter, or show them for completeness.
- Show column names – Show column names on tables and views.
- Find independent objects – Find potential "orphans" with no dependencies on other objects, to help you clean up your database.
