If I have a table in App A, is there a way to find all of it's relationships? Meaning, if it has a cross app relationship, where the table in App B is the child, you don't see the relationship from the parent. Do I have to manually go through every table that could potentially be a child table, and look at the relationships? Or is there some sneaky way for me to find all the child tables of a cross app relationship?

Mike:

I haven't run into a "point and click" method for doing this, however...

Usually what I'll do it put a summary field in the remote parent table that shows the # of children that parent has. This acts as a visual reminder that there's a relationship there.  It's less than optimal, but at least there's some way to see those relationship from the parent. 

Hope that helps (a little!).
