   There are coverage analysis tools that you could use to do this. =
Normally
these tools are used in automated testing, to verify that all code paths =
are
exercised by the test cases. We have some Rational PurifyPlus licenses =
and
as part of their package they bundle Quantify and PureCoverage. I'm sure
there are lots of other packages available but I have no idea what's the
best solution.=20

   Anyway, just Google for "code coverage analysis" or something like =
that
and you should get plenty of hits.

Cheers,
Stef! :)
