SQL Server 2000, 2005, 2008, 2012, 2014, 2016, 2017或2019:

SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE TABLE_TYPE='BASE TABLE'

仅显示来自特定数据库的表

SELECT TABLE_NAME 
FROM [<DATABASE_NAME>].INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES 
WHERE TABLE_TYPE = 'BASE TABLE'

Or,

SELECT TABLE_NAME 
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES 
WHERE TABLE_TYPE = 'BASE TABLE' 
    AND TABLE_CATALOG='dbName' --(for MySql, use: TABLE_SCHEMA='dbName' )

PS: SQL Server 2000:

SELECT * FROM sysobjects WHERE xtype='U' 

SELECT * FROM information_schema.tables
where TABLE_TYPE = 'BASE TABLE'

SQL Server 2012

要删除复制添加的表和微软添加的任何其他表，请运行以下命令:

SELECT s.NAME SchemaName, t.NAME TableName
FROM [dbname].SYS.tables t
INNER JOIN [dbname].SYS.SCHEMAS s
ON t.SCHEMA_ID = s.SCHEMA_ID
WHERE t.is_ms_shipped=0 and type_desc = 'USER_TABLE'
ORDER BY s.NAME, t.NAME

SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES 

OR

SELECT * FROM Sys.Tables

感谢Ray Vega，他的响应给出了数据库中的所有用户表…

Exec sp_msforeachtable 'print " ?“‘

Sp_helptext显示了底层查询，它总结为…

select * from dbo.sysobjects o 
join sys.all_objects syso on o.id =  syso.object_id  
where OBJECTPROPERTY(o.id, 'IsUserTable') = 1 
and o.category & 2 = 0 

INFORMATION_SCHEMA的缺点。它还包括系统表，如dtproperties和MSpeer_…表，没有办法把它们和你自己的表区分开来。

我建议使用sys。对象(已弃用的sysobjects视图的新版本)，它支持排除系统表:

select *
from sys.objects
where type = 'U'      -- User tables
and is_ms_shipped = 0 -- Exclude system tables
