There are two ways you may check the dependencies of a table:
1) Using Toad you can see the dependecies of a table
2) Yaping Chen recommends using a procedure with “dbma_utility.GET_DEPENDENCY”
example:
sys@TEST>exec dbms_utility.GET_DEPENDENCY(‘TABLE’,’TEST’,’T1′);
–
DEPENDENCIES ON TEST.T1
——————————————————————
*TABLE TEST.T1()
* FUNCTION TEST.FUN_T1_01()
* FUNCTION TEST.FUN_T1_02()
–
DEPENDENCIES ON TEST.T1
——————————————————————
*TABLE TEST.T1()
* FUNCTION TEST.FUN_T1_01()
* FUNCTION TEST.FUN_T1_02()
