SQL Server 2000 - Is this table needed? SQL Server 2000

I've been tasked with cleaning up an SQL database of which I have no history working with so I'm not familiar with the tables within. Short from dropping a table and seeing if anyone hollers, what is the best practice for cleaning up orphan tables? I did not see a "modified date" attribute on the table, only a "created date". 

Would the process be the same for SQL Server 2005/8? 

Thanks,
Dave
Couple of different approaches you could try with a Profiler trace.


Capture SQL:StmtCompleted, with a column filter on TextData %TableName%.
Capture Lock:Acquired event, with a filter on ObjectID with the id of the table.
