finding an old field

I have over a 1,000 fields in my form which were created and modified since Filemaker 4. There are, I'm sure, defined field names that are no longer used. I'd like to clean this up but I can't be sure if I'm deleted a field I am actually using on one of my layouts. Is there a way to see if the field is being used or exists on a layout(s)?

Your profile shows you as using 8 advanced so you can create a DDR that will create an HTML report on, amongst other things, the usage of all fields in your database

Thank You I will try that. I have FM advanced but I'm a beginner (sort of).
