find sql table name with a particular column
In SQL Server, you can query sys.columns.
Something like:
SELECT t.name FROM sys.columns c inner join sys.tables t on c.object_id = t.object_id WHERE c.name = 'NameID'You might want an additional lookup to resolve the schema name, if you have tables in multiple schemas.
you can run this query
SELECT t.name AS table_name,SCHEMA_NAME(schema_id) AS schema_name,c.name AS column_nameFROM sys.tables AS tINNER JOIN sys.columns c ON t.OBJECT_ID = c.OBJECT_IDWHERE c.name LIKE '%Column%' -- write the column you search hereORDER BY schema_name, table_name;
For Oracle Database. Use the below query:
select table_name from all_tab_columns where column_name = 'NameID';If you’ve got DBA privileges, you can try this command instead:
select table_name from dba_tab_columns where column_name = 'NameID';
