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。

用于显示具有指定列名的所有表的SQL查询：

SELECT SCHEMA_NAME(schema_id) + '.' + t.name AS 'Table Name'
  FROM sys.tables t
 INNER JOIN sys.columns c ON c.object_id = t.object_id
 WHERE c.name like '%ColumnName%'
 ORDER BY 'Table Name'

这应该是有效的：

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

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。

DECLARE @COLUMNNAME AS VARCHAR(100);

SET @COLUMNNAME = '%Absence%';

SELECT CASE
           WHEN [T].[NAME] IS NULL
           THEN 'View'
           WHEN [T].[NAME] = ''
           THEN 'View'
           ELSE 'Table'
       END AS [TYPE], '[' + [S].[NAME] + '].' + '[' + CASE
                                                          WHEN [T].[NAME] IS NULL
                                                          THEN [V].[NAME]
                                                          WHEN [T].[NAME] = ''

FROM [SYS].[SCHEMAS] AS [S] LEFT JOIN [SYS].[TABLES] AS [T] ON [S].SCHEMA_ID = [T].SCHEMA_ID
                            LEFT JOIN [SYS].[VIEWS] AS [V] ON [S].SCHEMA_ID = [V].SCHEMA_ID
                            INNER JOIN [SYS].[COLUMNS] AS [C] ON [T].OBJECT_ID = [C].OBJECT_ID
                                                                 OR
                                                                 [V].OBJECT_ID = [C].OBJECT_ID
                            INNER JOIN [SYS].[TYPES] AS [TY] ON [C].[SYSTEM_TYPE_ID] = [TY].[SYSTEM_TYPE_ID]
WHERE [C].[NAME] LIKE @COLUMNNAME
GROUP BY '[' + [S].[NAME] + '].' + '[' + CASE
                                             WHEN [T].[NAME] IS NULL
                                             THEN [V].[NAME]
                                             WHEN [T].[NAME] = ''
                                             THEN [V].[NAME]
                                             ELSE [T].[NAME]
                                         END + ']', [T].[NAME], [C].[NAME], [S].[NAME]
ORDER BY '[' + [S].[NAME] + '].' + '[' + CASE
                                             WHEN [T].[NAME] IS NULL
                                             THEN [V].[NAME]
                                             WHEN [T].[NAME] = ''
                                             THEN [V].[NAME]
                                             ELSE [T].[NAME]
                                         END + ']', CASE
                                                        WHEN [T].[NAME] IS NULL
                                                        THEN 'View'
                                                        WHEN [T].[NAME] = ''
                                                        THEN 'View'
                                                        ELSE 'Table'
                                                    END, [T].[NAME], [C].[NAME];

我出于同样的目的使用了这个，它起到了作用：

  select * from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
  where TABLE_CATALOG= 'theDatabase'
  and COLUMN_NAME like 'theCol%'

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。
