How to find out in which items, pages a function/procedure,.. will be used?

Question

I'm searching for the answer for:
Are there any script tools which find all place in apex , where functions/ packages/ procedures be used ?
-> want find where p_my_function is using. (Item level, page level, ....)
Thank in advanced
Hendrik

Based on the APEX views (*Home > Utilities > Application Express Views*) I've been using this, run in the parsing schema for the application. It's set up to look at one application at a time as this is the best fit for our requirements:
with search as (
      select :search_term search_term from dual)
  , app_source as (
      select
                'Application Computation' component
              , null                      page_id

      and       (   aac.computation_type like 'SQL%'
                 or aac.computation_type like 'PL/SQL%')

Note that this is on an APEX 3.0 installation. There may be more potential locations to be checked in later versions.
