在MS SQL中，可以编写以下行来检查特定表的列名：

sp_help your_tablename

或者，您可以先在查询窗口中选择表名（突出显示模式和表名），然后按下下面的组合键：

Alt + F1

搜索表：

SELECT      c.name  AS 'ColumnName'
            ,t.name AS 'TableName'
FROM        sys.columns c
JOIN        sys.tables  t   ON c.object_id = t.object_id
WHERE       c.name LIKE '%MyName%'
ORDER BY    TableName
            ,ColumnName;

搜索表和视图：

SELECT      COLUMN_NAME AS 'ColumnName'
            ,TABLE_NAME AS  'TableName'
FROM        INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE       COLUMN_NAME LIKE '%MyName%'
ORDER BY    TableName
            ,ColumnName;

SELECT t.name AS table_name, 
    SCHEMA_NAME(schema_id) AS schema_name,
    c.name AS column_name
FROM sys.tables AS t INNER JOIN sys.columns c ON t.OBJECT_ID = c.OBJECT_ID
WHERE c.name LIKE '%Label%'
ORDER BY schema_name, table_name;

它将返回table_name、schema_name、column_name

SELECT t.name AS table_name,
SCHEMA_NAME(schema_id) AS schema_name,
c.name AS column_name
FROM sys.tables AS t
INNER JOIN sys.columns c
ON t.object_id = c.object_id
WHERE c.name LIKE '%colName%'
ORDER BY schema_name,
table_name;

像oracle一样，您可以通过以下方式查找表和列：

select table_name, column_name
from user_tab_columns 
where column_name 
like '%myname%';

为了改进上面的答案，我还包括了视图，并将模式和表/视图连接在一起，使结果更加明显。

DECLARE @COLUMNNAME AS VARCHAR(100);

SET @COLUMNNAME = '%Absence%';
