Are your eeps custom code (therefore internal to the form), or do you have 
external eeps?  If they are internal to the form, Bill's method gets those too. 
 
First you do a "browse all from sys_forms3 where sys_data contains 
'ColumnName' ", and then you double-click on the sys_data column.  Do a search 
for the 
ColumnName.  When you find a spot, you'll see your eep code.  The next step is 
to figure out where in the form it is!   If it's a button, look above the eep 
code for a line that shows the "Caption".  This is how you know which button 
the field is in.

Whenever I do something like change the name or the datatype or length of a 
field, I always do 3 things:
1.    Use some kind of editor program to search all external programs for 
occurrence of the column name.
2.    Search sys_reports3 where sys_data contains the columnname.
3.    Search sys_forms3 .......

Between those 3 things you'll find it all!
