ApexSQL Clean description
A software that looks for and deletes unreferenced and unused Database objects

ApexSQL Clean looks for and deletes unreferenced and unused Database objects like tables, views and procedures.

If database object bloat is the problem, ApexSQL Clean is the solution. Your database may have many stored procedures, tables and views that aren't being used anymore but unless you determine which of your objects fall into this category you will be stuck with them forever.

ApexSQL Clean will analyze a client whether it be ASP, Delphi, VB etc to determine what sql objects are actually being used and what objects aren't. It will also analyze the database itself to see what internal references exist among SQL objects. Based on this analysis it will generate a file of SQL drop statements to Clean your database of these useless objects.

Here are some
