You can also use the activity monitor to see this information.

You can find more information about deadlocks here http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms177433%28v=sql.105%29.aspx

Deadlocks are a performance problem because they can prevent 2 or more processes from being able to process data.  A deadlock chain can occur and impact hundreds of spids based on the data access patterns, number of users, object dependencies, etc.

Run 'sp_who" and 'sp_who2' but I can't find the 'blocked" or 'blocked  by" column.  Do I make something wrong ?
