You could also temporarily change the variable to non static, then it won't be able to be accessed. If something tries to access it, you should get an error for every script that is trying to access the variable.

If you have C#, open monodevelop, right click the variable and 'find references'.

If you have JS, use search/find in files.

I usually just use search/find in files - it's faster than 'find references'.

I grabbed Xamarin Studio a couple weeks ago (new monodevelop), tore out half my hair in frustration at the new clunky interface and occasional bug, and then enjoyed the heck out of it because Find References is super-fast in that version.

Cool! So, you do unity monodevelop updates?! I tried it once and never again.

Search your code for the variable name. Find where it's being set. Change it.
