    Is there any way to see what objects are referenced by string in Unitys Inspector, similar to when you right click an object in the heriearchy and click -Usages In Scene. This would be for things in code referenced by string such as when doing Resources.Load ("referencesdObject"); or gameObject.Find("ReferencedObject")?

    Alas there is not, but you can always do find-in-files from the editor to look for strings.

    If the string is constructed at runtime (like prefix + number + suffix or something), it's a lot harder to search.
