Where-used query for specific field

Hi,
 
Is there a way I can query (via API or in SF directly, I don't mind) which reports make use of a specific custom field? I want to phase out a custom field and want to determine what the impact would be if I did so.
 
Thanks
Rozanne

No easy way to query, but I know that you can try to delete a field, and the system will tell you where it's used.  I realize that's not ideal.  There are a  few areas we have "where used", but not for reports.

I'm trying to do this, too. Any update since 2007?

 

I want to delete /consolidate some fields but want to see where they're being used in reports. 

Thanks!
