select distinct table_name

SELECT DISTINCT TABLE_NAME, COLUMN_NAME  
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS  
WHERE column_name LIKE 'employee%'  
AND TABLE_SCHEMA='YourDatabase'

一个简单的方法:

SELECT *
FROM information_schema.columns
WHERE column_name = 'column_name';

在旧的MySQL版本或一些没有information_schema的MySQL NDB集群版本中，您可以转储表结构并手动搜索列。

mysqldump -h$host -u$user -p$pass --compact --no-data --all-databases > some_file.sql

现在搜索some_file中的列名。sql使用您喜欢的文本编辑器，或使用一些漂亮的AWK脚本。

和一个简单的sed脚本来查找列。只需将COLUMN_NAME替换为您的:

sed -n '/^USE/{h};/^CREATE/{H;x;s/\nCREATE.*\n/\n/;x};/COLUMN_NAME/{x;p};' <some_file.sql
USE `DATABASE_NAME`;
CREATE TABLE `TABLE_NAME` (
  `COLUMN_NAME` varchar(10) NOT NULL,

您可以直接在sed中管道转储，但这并不重要。

select distinct table_name 
from information_schema.columns 
where column_name in ('ColumnA') 
    and table_schema='YourDatabase';
    and table_name in 
    (
        select distinct table_name 
        from information_schema.columns 
        where column_name in ('ColumnB')
              and table_schema='YourDatabase';
    );

这^^将得到表的列na和ColumnB，而不是列na或ColumnB，就像接受的答案

获取数据库YourDatabase中所有列为columnna或ColumnB的表:

SELECT DISTINCT TABLE_NAME 
    FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
    WHERE COLUMN_NAME IN ('columnA','ColumnB')
        AND TABLE_SCHEMA='YourDatabase';
