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%' 

如果你更喜欢第三方工具，有很多选择，比如：

ApexSQL搜索SSMS工具包红门工具。

如果您的数据库包含加密对象（视图、过程、函数），则这些对象非常有用，因为您无法使用系统表轻松搜索这些对象。

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。

SET @COLUMNNAME = '%Absence%';

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。

要获取完整信息：列名、表名以及表的架构。。

SELECT COLUMN_NAME, TABLE_NAME, TABLE_SCHEMA
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS 
WHERE COLUMN_NAME LIKE '%col_Name%'

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
