使用SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA。COLUMNS还显示所有表和相关列。

2022年更新: 您可以在Microsoft SQL SERVER中列出/显示使用这个简单查询创建的表。

select * from SYS.TABLES;

SELECT sobjects.name
FROM sysobjects sobjects
WHERE sobjects.xtype = 'U' 

SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES 

OR

SELECT * FROM Sys.Tables

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 TABLE_NAME 
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES 
WHERE TABLE_TYPE='BASE TABLE' 
ORDER BY TABLE_NAME
