SQL Server：

SELECT Table_Name, Column_Name 
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE TABLE_CATALOG = 'YOUR_DATABASE'
AND COLUMN_NAME LIKE '%YOUR_COLUMN%'

神谕：

SELECT owner, table_name, column_name 
FROM all_tab_columns 
WHERE column_name LIKE '%YOUR_COLUMN_NAME%'
AND OWNER IN ('YOUR_SCHEMA_NAME');

就这么简单！！（SQL，PL/SQL）我一直使用它来查找给定数据库（模式）中列名的所有实例。

SELECT table_schema + '.' + table_name,
       column_name
FROM   [yourdatabase].information_schema.columns
WHERE  column_name LIKE '%myName%' 

这将为您提供需要查找的列的表名。

USE AdventureWorks

GO

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 '%EmployeeID%'
ORDER BY schema_name, table_name;

我不知道为什么很多人建议使用sys.columns加入sys.table。

您可以使用以下代码：

SELECT Object_name(object_id) AS TableName,
       *
FROM   sys.columns
WHERE  NAME LIKE '%MyName%' 

or

如果还需要架构名称：

SELECT *
FROM   information_schema.columns
WHERE  column_name LIKE '%MyName%' 

这应该是有效的：

SELECT name 
FROM sysobjects 
WHERE id IN ( SELECT id 
              FROM syscolumns 
              WHERE name like '%column_name%' )

此外，还可以找到具有指定模式的列名。

SELECT 'DBName' AS DBName,
       column_name,
       table_name,
       table_schema
FROM   dbname.information_schema.columns
WHERE  column_name LIKE '%YourColumnName%'
       AND table_schema IN ( 'YourSchemaName' ) 

您还可以在多个数据库中找到同一列。

SELECT 'DBName1' AS DB,
       column_name,
       table_name,
       table_schema
FROM   dbname1.information_schema.columns
WHERE  column_name LIKE '%YourColumnName%'
UNION
SELECT 'DBName2' AS DB,
       column_name,
       table_name,
       table_schema
FROM   dbname2.information_schema.columns
WHERE  column_name LIKE '%YourColumnName%'
