The Show Related notebook shows the immediate relationship between objects. You will only see the first level subordinate dependencies for an object. For example, if you want to drop TableA you will need to know what views are affected. On the Views page of the Show Related notebook for TableA you see ViewA. ViewA has a first level dependency on TableA. If another view, ViewB, was built on ViewA, it would have a first level dependency on ViewA and a second level dependency on TableA. You will not see ViewB listed in the Show Related notebook for TableA. You must right-click on the ViewA object in the notebook and select Show Related from the popup menu to see the dependencies on ViewA. You can look at Show Related for as many levels of dependencies as exist.
