You could search for references to the table names, with a string searching utility, there should be a couple in the download section. But it depends on the system, what if the name is generated and not hardcoded?.

My advise would be to leave it alone, change only what's explicitly required, don't try to fix more than necessary, that is usually my approach to other people's code when it's not properly documented, which is usually the case.

>I need to study a system that is written by some old programmers in my company, it has a large set of database. However, some free tables are actually not needed by the system anymore but still in the package. What I need to do is to find them out and delete them, is there any efficient way to find out which database is used by the system and which is not? is there even any tools to do it?
